Access To Recovery (ATR)
A 4 yr grant to help agencies like OASIS of NWA provide services to recovering
persons, especially families with young children has been obtained by the Arkansas Department of Behavioral Health Services.
Oasis is making application to provide care coordination, transitional housing, peer mentoring, and spiritual support. Parenting
education and financial counseling are also among the list of services which qualify for grant support. $$ received
for services provided by volunteers at no cost to OASIS will help to fund the long term development of our mission.
Any volunteers with qualification to provide needed services should email or call OASIS.

grant to bring women from Magdalene, Inc and the Thistle Farms bath and beauty cottage industry to northwest
Arkansas on Feb 19-20, 2010. For more information, see the February 2010 newsletter and pictures. Thank you!
