Chattanooga Tracheostomy families is a support group (which became a non-profit this year thanks to YOU!) that cares for families of children with tracheostomies in the Chattanooga area. We do this in a variety of ways: through hospital support, education, community engagement, and advocacy. Trach/Vent life is so very life altering, so our group is here to support a family as they transition to this life and join a community of children thriving in life with their traits. We have 50 members in this community and are growing!
