It’s March Meeting Madness
It’s March Meeting Madness
Posted by Kara Wilkins on March 9th 2010



The countdown is on! It's tournament time and like college basketball, AACF is having a winning tournament of its own. Over the next few months, AACF will travel across the state to host a number of regional meetings for both the Arkansas Finish Line and Arkansas Kids Count Coalitions.

The Arkansas Finish Line Coalition, in conjunction with the Arkansas Department of Human Services, seeks to increase public awareness of the benefits of ARKids First. In our outreach campaign, we'll collaborate with community partners to help identify and address enrollment and re-enrollment barriers that keep kids from receiving continuous, quality ARKids First coverage.
