Lance Villio, Executive Director of the Governor’s Faith-Based and Community Initiative, joins Signature Required to discuss how government, churches, and nonprofits can work together to serve Tennessee’s most vulnerable. Appointed by Governor Bill Lee, Lance leads an office positioned between the state’s 23 departments and local communities, addressing complex challenges through three key efforts: Every Child Tennessee, the Volunteer Mentorship Initiative, and the Human Flourishing Initiative. At the heart of the conversation is a simple but powerful idea: government plays an important role, but lasting change happens when everyday Tennesseans take shared responsibility for their neighbors.
