The Arkansas Department of Human Services has created in response to COVID-19 called Promoting Positive Emotions. Below is some information introducing this free program available to all Arkansans.
The sole purpose of the Promoting Positive Emotions (PPE) program is to help those Arkansas residents directly impacted by COVID-19 receive the emotional and behavioral health services they need to gain strength and be able to carry on during these unprecedented times – at no cost to them. By partnering with local providers across the state, we’re able to provide education, outreach, crisis counseling and referrals to those impacted by the current pandemic.
