Moving on

Arkansas Right to Life in Little Rock announced that executive director Rose Mimms will be leaving her leadership role by the end of the year. Mimms was hired in April 1993 as office manager and, after a few years, was promoted to executive director, a title she has held for 30 years. 

“I have always considered this work as a mission from God, and though I’m stepping aside as the director, my role at Arkansas Right to Life will change as the new director assumes leadership,” the member of St. Jude Church in Jacksonville said.

“I don’t call it retiring. I will be able to focus on special projects, including traveling the state, supporting and developing Arkansas Right to Life regional chapters.”

Mimms added, “It is comforting for me, as I step to the side, to know that our organization is in good hands with our new board president, Dr. Sharai Amaya, and the new executive director we know the Lord will provide.”
