Program accomplishments

  • The Urban Child Institute is dedicated to promoting the education, health, and well-being of young children in Shelby County.

UCI staff made presentations and lead discussions regarding children's health, social and emotional development. UCI staff served as participants and leaders in a variety of child related coalitions that have as a goal bringing community groups with similar interests together in order that they might share experiences, gain insight into what others are doing and potentially develop collaborative projects. In 2024, UCI funded numerous not for profits in Shelby County that have a focus on early childhood. UCI also provided funding to designated (by charter) support organizations: LeBonheur Children's Hospital, University of Tennessee Health Science Center and the University of Memphis.
