Empowering Women: Tanager’s Legacy, Tanager’s Future
Tanager was founded by Eleanor Lund, an extraordinary woman who was relentless in her efforts to meet the needs of children in Cedar Rapids in the mid-1860s. A 1985 article
Early intervention can help children and teens stay in school, stay out of trouble and lead healthier, happier lives.
Through a comprehensive approach to treatment, our team offers an array of services to children and their families.
We believe education and experiential learning is key in empowering children, families, communities, and systems.

Thanks to a generous $1M anonymous donation to Tanager in 2019, scholarships are available to support individuals who have utilized Tanager programs and services in pursuing their secondary education goals. The program aims to cater to students’ diverse needs, offering awards for traditional college courses, trade school attendance, or further academic endeavors at a community college!
