SERVICES - HOW WE DO IT

AWAKE is distinctive because of its “house” model; an approach that focuses on issues that adversely affect women and kids on both the macro and micro level. The “roof” of the model is shaped by efforts to promote positive policy change affecting communities and the state of Tennessee as a whole. The “foundation” of the model is an educational curriculum that teaches children and vulnerable adult’s strategies for breaking cycles of poverty and violence. The “walls” in between are shaped through volunteer training and participation, which reinforce all the organization’s work. By addressing societal change from both a top-down and bottom-up approach, AWAKE is effectively improving the future of all Tennesseans. Our strategic approach fosters unique partnerships with organizations, communities, & elected officials to ensure that the interests of women and children in Tennessee are heard and addressed.
