Congressman Cohen Announces $231,000 Grant for Tennessee Pre-Kindergarten

July 2, 2008


“I was very pleased to announce this grant for Tennessee from Pre-K Now,” said Congressman Cohen. “Pre-K Now is one of the most important advocacy organizations for high-quality pre-kindergarten education in Washington, and we are grateful for all of the services and funding that they provide for policymakers at all levels of government. The Tennessee Alliance for Early Education has been doing great work the children of Tennessee for many years and they are certainly befitting of this award.”

Pre-K Now collaborates with advocates and policymakers at the state and federal levels to push for high-quality, voluntary pre-kindergarten education for all three and four-year-olds. For more information, please visit https://www.preknow.org.

The Tennessee Alliance is a bipartisan coalition of more than 650 individuals and groups who believe the expansion of pre-K opportunities across the state is critical to the future success of our children. Visit www.prekfortn.com for more information.
