About The Tennessee Community Corrections Association (TCCA):
The Tennessee Community Corrections Association is a professional organization that was formally established on February 27, 1990, dedicated to supporting and advancing community corrections in Tennessee. TCCA Serves as a network for correctional professionals, providing opportunities for education, training and collaboration to promote best practices in community-based corrections initiatives. The Community Corrections Act was written in 1985 to provide judges with enhanced sentencing alternatives for adult felony offenders and also to help eliminate prison overcrowding (TCA 40-36-101, et. al.). The first Community Corrections programs opened in 1986 with 12 agencies. There are now 15 Community Corrections agencies statewide, comprised of County Programs, Human Resource Agencies and private non-profit programs.
Through conferences, workshops, and ongoing professional development, TCCA fosters a culture of innovation, accountability, and public safety. The association also advocates for policies and programs that strengthen community supervision and rehabilitation, helping to reduce recidivism and support successful reintegration of individuals into society.
