RUTHERFORD COUNTY, TN - In 1975, the Rutherford County Adult Activity Center opened with a purpose to serve adults with disabilities. In 2011, the organization received a name change to Journeys in Community Living. Now 48-years later, the organization continues to provide a variety of training services to more than 120 adults with intellectual disabilities in both Rutherford and Cannon Counties... That was Journeys in Community Living Development Director Dana Smith.
