We Are
TJCA Truth
TJCA Truth was founded to promote transparency and public accountability at what we believe to be one of Rutherford County’s most opaque public institutions, empowering community members through access to public records, critical reporting, and informed civic engagement.
About TJCA Truth
TJCA Truth is committed to ensuring that public records and news are accessible to everyone. We believe in the right of the public to scrutinize government actions, especially when it comes to issues affecting children and families. Our team works tirelessly to uncover the truth and provide resources that empower citizens to hold public bodies accountable. We invite you to join us in our mission to foster transparency and protect the community.
