Our Story

Educare was founded by June and Jim McHenry in Franklin, Tennessee in 1998. Jim, a Licensed Alcohol and Drug Abuse Counselor, and June, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, were asked by the Honorable Judge Lonnie Hoover and Honorable Judge Al Nations to create a batterers’ intervention program. Jim & June educated men and women who were involved in domestic violence cases. During their work, it became evident that alcohol and substance abuse played a significant role in many domestic violence incidents. A substance abuse psycho-education class was added to intervene & introduce individuals to a pathway to recovery.

In 2005, Jim decided to retire and June moved on to other ways of helping people. Tony Owens was asked by the McHenrys to carry on the mission & vision of Educare.
