Tucker's House: Graham Honeycutt on Making a House a Home for Kids with Disabilities
Oct 01, 2026 Episode 47 Jason and Mindy Hoover

Tucker's House makes Middle Tennessee homes safe for kids with disabilities, and Graham Honeycutt found it first as a dad who needed help.

Graham Honeycutt is the executive director of Tucker's House, the Franklin nonprofit that has provided home modifications for families of children and young adults with disabilities since 2009.

Graham tells us about his daughter Mikayla, why he was the only one at home who could lift her, and how a therapist pointed his family to Tucker's House. You'll hear how a therapist's assessment shapes every project so it lasts a child's lifetime, why independence matters as much as safety, and what a ramp, a widened doorway or an accessible bathroom actually costs. Graham also shares what families wish the rest of us understood, and the ways Middle Tennessee can help right now, including a time-sensitive grant for Davidson County families.
