UADA & Bank On Arkansas+ Community Partner Meetings

The University of Arkansas System Division of Agriculture Cooperative Extension Service in partnership with Bank On Arkansas+ (BOA+) invites you to join us for a series of discussions to help form a collective vision for financial health in the state of Arkansas.

BOA+ looks to engage local community-based organizations and financial institutions interested in helping individuals build financial strength through banking as an on-ramp toward wealth-building. We seek local partners who understand the importance of ensuring “safe” accounts exist so that unbanked or underbanked individuals and families can build a meaningful connection to mainstream financial services.

When:

  • May 2023 in Russellville, AR (Venue and Date TBA)
  • May/June 2023 in Monticello, AR (Venue and Date TBA)
  • June 2023 in Helena, AR (Venue and Date TBA)

Who: Nonprofits, financial institutions, municipal and local/governmental leaders and other community partners are welcome.

Time: Each event will begin at 11:00 AM (doors open at 10:30 AM) and adjourn at 12:00 PM.

For questions regarding these meetings, contact Megan Wells, mwells@uada.edu.
