FACT SHEET Open Table Nashville is a non-profit, interfaith community that: • disrupts cycles of poverty, • journeys with the marginalized and • provides education about issues of homelessness. Open Table Nashville was conceived by a handful of outreach workers, ministers and volunteers connected with Tent City, Nashville’s largest homeless encampment located on the banks of the Cumberland River. When the flood of 2010 hit, about 140 people were displaced. That began the work of what became in 2011—Open Table Nashville—an interfaith 501 c 3 non-profit community. Open Table means a place where everyone is welcome. And that is what we strive for every day at Open Table Nashville…..to find a place of welcome for all people in Nashville. We focus on education and advocacy. This past year, we served over 2000 individuals and families who were chronically homeless and medically vulnerable---600 were moved into permanent affordable housing. More than 23,000 people in Nashville experience homelessness every year; about 1700 are served nightly by traditional shelters and transitional housing facilities. The remainder cycle from the streets, doubling up with friends or family, in cars or staying in run-down motels. Rev.
