Resource & Connection Network

A trusted map of Nashville professionals and organizations, so caregivers never have to search alone.

Part of our Advocate pillar

After a disclosure, caregivers are suddenly expected to find therapists, attorneys and advocates while also caring for their child. ROAR builds and maintains relationships across Nashville so the right next step is easier to find.

Who is in the network

  • Child advocacy organizations

    Forensic interviews, family advocates and court support.

  • Trauma-informed therapists

    Counselors experienced with children and with caregivers.

  • Legal resources

    Attorneys and clinics who understand what families face in court.

  • Healthcare and schools

    Pediatric providers, school counselors and first responders.

How we connect a family

  1. A caregiver contacts ROAR, or a partner refers them with their permission.
  2. We listen to what the family needs right now.
  3. We introduce them to vetted professionals who fit those needs.
  4. We check in to make sure the connection actually happened.
