CLEVELAND, Tenn. - Dr. Nancy LaBine, Director of Nursing at Cleveland State Community College, was recently awarded the Tennessee Head Start 2015-2016 Community Volunteer of the Year Award by the Family Resource Agency, Inc. Tennessee Early Head Start/Head Start Policy Council.
“We don’t expect to receive an award for doing the right thing, but when it happens it really is surprising and humbling,” stated LaBine. “I am honored to have been chosen by my colleagues to receive this award. I appreciate being a part of this council and being involved in the important work they do for the children of Cleveland/Bradley County and beyond.”
LaBine has been actively serving the Family Resource Agency, Inc. since 2003 when she learned about the agency’s Harbor Safe House/Family Violence Program through her association with the United Way of Bradley County. She knew immediately that she wanted to be an active part of Harbor Safe House and continues to serve the organization today. In 2004, LaBine was invited to serve on the Head Start/Early Head Start Health Advisory Committee. This committee considers the health and nutrition of all the students in the Head Start programs. She was pleased to accept the invitation and believed that her successful involvement with the Bradley County and Cleveland City Coordinated School Health programs and the Bradley County Healthcare Council would serve her well in the role. In 2013, LaBine was invited to become a member of the Family Resource Agency, Inc. Tennessee Early Head Start/Head Start Policy Council where she became a voting member of the Head Start Agency. As a member of the Policy Council, she has been highly effective in the thoughtful review and decision-making required for the agency to stay within federal government regulations. She takes care to understand the issues at hand and is forthcoming with her questions, insight, and reasoning.
LaBine recently worked with Council members Sherronda Thompson, Head Start Director, and Laura Boyd, Family Resource Agency Special Projects Specialist, to complete an in-depth review of a 2016 Early Head Start/Head Start Program Self-Assessment Report. She also participated in the 2016 Self-Assessment report for the Health Advisory Committee with June Montgomery Anderson, the Health/Nutrition/Family Services Coordinator. Throughout the years, LaBine has willingly given her time in serving the Family Resource Agency and other community organizations.
