Welcome to Memphis, Tennessee! Memphis’ focus on building a trauma-informed and resilient community led Sesame Street in Communities to the ACE Awareness Foundation (ACEAF) and Porter-Leath, two organizations serving at-risk families. Together, SSIC will be integrated into the ACEAF Universal Parenting Place programming and into Porter Leath’s robust Teacher Excellence program. Support from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and Joan Ganz Cooney Fund for Vulnerable Children helped us bring SSIC to this community.
