While our mission of supporting families of children with disabilities continues as strong as ever, we carefully and intentionally decided to rebrand with the goal of putting Tennessee first, to make our services easier to find by those who need us most. STEP, Inc. is now TNSTEP!
Happy International Women's Day! We are so grateful for the dedicated and hardworking women on our team!
Lisa, Dorca, Donna, Beth, Karen, Patricia, Shuntea, & Stephanie--we celebrate you today and always.
Our website is down. Please call or email us if you have an urgent need. Thanks for your patience!

Being aware of the areas of school life allows parents to understand the different opportunities for their kids w/ #disabilities to achieve their #IEP goals, which can happen not only through the gen curriculum but also through extracurricular and nonacademic activities.
This Black History Month, STEP is recognizing the important presence & impact of African Americans who have used their platforms to normalize conversations about disabilities. This week's feature is Muhammad Ali--champion boxer, advocate, & author. Story:bit.ly/3gvut6D

If based on the evaluation conducted, the #EarlyIntervention program determines that the child is not eligible for services, they must provide prior written notice that includes sufficient details of the reasons for the determination.
