The Intrastate Network to Deliver Equity and Eliminate Disparities (INDEED)
The University of Tennessee Chattanooga’s School of Nursing, along with engAGING Communities Tennessee, is proud to sponsor the “Intrastate Network to Deliver Equity and Eliminate Disparities (INDEED)" to empower faith-based and religious congregations to offer hope for older adults and caregivers.
Volunteers, identified by congregation leadership, can receive FREE training on dementia, caregiving, crisis intervention, mental health, emergency preparedness, advance care planning, legal issues, COVID-19, and community resources. Once trained, these volunteers will be able to extend support and resources to their congregations and surrounding neighborhoods.
