YWCA Nashville & Middle Tennessee was honored to host ADM Rachel Levine, Assistant Secretary for Health at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. ADM Levine's visit marked the culmination of her three-day Nashville tour, focusing on the Domestic Violence Survivor Defendant Diversion Program. Led by District Attorney General Glenn Funk, this pilot program aims to divert domestic abuse survivors away from the criminal justice system, providing them with compassionate support.

“The generosity of the Nashville community is overwhelming,” said Sharon Roberson, president and CEO of YWCA Nashville & Middle Tennessee. “This event is vital for our team to continue providing resources to survivors in need of safety, healing, and hope. Our guests – roughly half of whom were attending for the very first time – opened their hearts to make sure women, children and families are safe and healing, all while having a fun and fabulous time together.”
