The Nashville Scene magazine has named the staff of the Tennessee Immigrant and Refugee Rights Coalition (TIRC) its Nashvillians of the Year for 2019. The organization was formed in 2003 to empower and protect immigrants and refugees throughout the state. The news comes as the group announces a capital campaign to build a stand-alone headquarters in Antioch. Attorney Anne Davis and her husband and former Mayor Karl Dean, will serve as honorary co-chairs. The new $2.5 million headquarters will provide green space, gathering places, more office space and a legal services suite — allowing TIRRC to expand its legal team, Nashville Public Radio reports.
