Grateful hearts today.
A special thank you to
for helping share the mission of Volunteers in Medicine Chattanooga by posting our clinic flyer on their community advocacy bulletin board in their front lobby. Small acts like this help carry a big message that compassionate, free primary care is available for neighbors in our community who need it most.
Awareness is often the first step to care. When someone discovers that help exists, it can truly change a life.
If your business, nonprofit, church, or community organization has a bulletin board or space where community resources can be shared, we would love to connect with you about posting our clinic information. Every flyer placed is another chance for someone in need to find the care they deserve.
Together, communities care better.

Did someone call or leave a voicemail about your SNAP or Families First benefits and say your benefits were suspended? It may be a scam! Here are four things to remember about communications from TDHS:

1️⃣TDHS will not ask for your EBT card PIN if they contact you.

2️⃣ If you are unsure if a call, text, or e-mail is from TDHS, do not respond. Instead, review your case on the One DHS Customer Portal or check your transaction history using ebtEDGE.

3️⃣You can check your case details, find updates and learn about important dates when you log into the One DHS Customer Portal at https://onedhs.tn.gov/csp. You can also ask Ava, the virtual chat assistant, to help you find information or connect you with a TDHS representative."

4️⃣ The ebtEDGE Cardholder Portal (https://www.ebtedge.com/gov/portal/PortalHome.do) and Mobile App (https://www.fisglobal.com/ebtedgemobile) have features
✔️Freeze your account anytime you suspect suspicious activity
✔️Change your PIN regularly
✔️Block out-of-state purchases

Some criminals pretend to be TDHS by phone, text, or e-mail to gain personal information and steal customer benefits. For tips to help you keep your benefits safe, visit our website at https://www.tn.gov/humanservices/need-help-/tdhs-fraud.html.
