Safe Baby Court Launches
Hamilton County's Safe Baby Court initiative focuses on helping children aged birth to three in the welfare system secure safe, permanent homes. Launched with strong community support, the program emphasizes collaboration between parents and professionals, such as case managers and developmental specialists, to address issues like drug addiction or mental health struggles. Local officials stress its potential to improve long-term societal outcomes by investing in the youngest residents. This effort reflects a commitment to addressing the high number of young children in foster care across Tennessee.
