ARKANSAS FAITH IN ACTION STATE COALITION
AFIASC is an organization with no “reconceived” ideas or history that says “it can’t be done” or “we’ve never done it that way” but rather it’s a group of caring people who want to make a difference in the lives of others and it’s willing to think “outside” the box. The benefit to members is that your Coalition is interested in your ideas and participation in making the collaborative work for you.
