About Carrie H. Durard

I\'m a Growth Operations wizard that plays a critical role in helping a company realize its aggressive growth plans in a scalable way. Thinking strategically and acting tactically, I support the growth team by spearheading growth initiatives and driving improvements within the organization. Jonathan\'s Path is my passion project that I started towards the end of 2021. As foster parents, my husband and I saw first the inconsistencies teenagers faced when entering the foster care program. We offer immediate, long-term and wrap-around services for teens entering into or aging out of foster care in Middle Tennessee. If you\'re interested in learning more, visit

   We give Middle Tennessee teens in foster care a new path—with a place to call home and a chance to dream.
