Thrive Regional Partnership

(Aired Weds 2/12/25)

In this corner of the Southeast, Thrive Regional Partnership reaches 16 counties where Tennessee, Alabama and Georgia meet - including the Greater Chattanooga area.

The nonprofit’s mission: to cultivate what it calls “responsible and inspired growth.”

Last week, Thrive’s Freight Mobility Committee - a group of public officials and representatives from private industry - met at McKee Foods in Collegedale.

Shannon Millsaps is with Thrive.

Resilient Communities is another initiative at Thrive Regional Partnership that engages people to develop nature-based solutions for where they live.

This Friday is the deadline for communities to apply to participate.

John Bilderback is with Thrive.

Ray is the host and producer of Scenic Roots, Mondays - Thursdays at 3 PM on WUTC.
