The Tennessee Disability Coalition is made up of more than 40 groups working to promote equal participation of people with disabilities. For the past four years, the organization has released a scorecard grading the state on several aspects such as access to care, housin,g and education. This is the first year the state has received a grade of “incomplete.” The group wrote that the state has been doing positive work, but uncertainty tied to support from the federal level has hurt progress.
