Overview

Mission

Our goal is to provide support to enhance the quality of life for individuals experiencing barriers to employment and independent living. We provide support to people with disabilities whose goals are to live and work in the community. We are constantly endeavoring to implement programs and services that provide support for the disabled and underserved.

What it reported doing in 2025

In 2025 Emerging Moments ended a contract with the Social Security Administration but continued to provide benefits counseling to disabled Social Security beneficiaries. Emerging Moments entered into a contract with Arkansas Rehabilitation Services to provide employment services to individuals with disabilities who have barriers to employment. Much of the time was spent organizing, training, and obtaining certifications for the staff to be able to provide services. A few people were assisted with job search and developing resumes.
