About the Presenter
Katie Growden is a mom of three and an early childhood educator with over 25 years of experience working with children ages birth through 6 years.

Before joining SCAN’s staff as Tennessee State Manager, Katie served as Public Policy Chair for the Nashville Area Association for the Education of Young Children and as a Volunteer Leader for SCAN’s Middle Tennessee Community Action Team. She and her family have made their home in Middle Tennessee since her husband completed his military career in 1995.

She can be contacted at [email protected].
Thank you to our lunch sponsor, Save the Children Action Network!
Save the Children Action Network (SCAN) was created in 2014 as the political advocacy arm of Save the Children, to be the political voice for kids. We work across the United States to ensure that the issues critical to children’s lives and futures are given top priority by our elected leaders, building bipartisan support to make sure every child has a strong start in life. In addition to our federal work, we helped secure nearly $800 million in state level investments (across 10 states) to expand early learning programs and ensure American children have enough to eat. In 2022, we met with U.S. lawmakers more than 250 TIMES & GENERATED 840,000 messages urging them to invest in children in the U.S. and worldwide. We provide the training and the connection to decision makers to help you use your voice for the children and families you serve.
