United Way of Greater Chattanooga

Scaling United for Working Families: Tennessee Blueprint for National Model

By scaling United for Working Families, we'll partner with employers statewide to create flexible, supportive workplaces - helping women and families thrive across Tennessee and beyond.

Tennessee ranks 49th for helping struggling families, more than 40% of female-headed households live in poverty, and women comprise two-thirds of the low-wage workforce [1][2][3]. United Way of Greater Chattanooga's United for Working Families empowers struggling families through the power of workplace practice and culture. We are creating a comprehensive, scalable model for supporting women in the workplace after starting locally to great success, and will now grow statewide, providing a blueprint for nationwide scalability.
