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 19th, 2023, at 1:00pm in Monticello, AR (University Center Capitol Room – 517 University Drive inside of Gibson University Center) 
  • June 20, 2023, at 10:00 AM in Marvell, AR (Boys, Girls, Adults Community Development Center – 306 US Hwy 49, Marvell, AR 72366)
  • June 2023 in Russellville, AR (Venue and Date TBA)

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

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