ThinkTennessee Information

As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, we bring together leaders from throughout Tennessee. We come from many sectors—business, academics, law, medicine, government—and from both sides of the political aisle. We are united by our conviction that facts matter and that moderate, pragmatic voices—the kind that have served our state well for generations—should play a prominent role in shaping public policy. Policy is more than just rhetoric and politics. It shapes our roads and bridges, our schools and neighborhoods, our healthcare and our taxes. It impacts our right to vote. Making good policy is critical to making Tennesseans’ lives better. And that’s where ThinkTennessee fits in. Our work blends top-notch research and policy analysis with a drive to get this information into the hands of policymakers, the media, nonprofit organizations and citizens.
