National Trends and Services
The vision of the National Trends and Services (NTS) facet of The Links, Incorporated is to eliminate disparities by reducing barriers to services through advocacy, education, and service. Our mission is to effectively empower the communities in which we work. To do this, the NTS facet designs community programs that increase awareness of issues that affect the quality of life of African Americans.
The programs under the National Trends and Services facet serve as a catalyst for change, promoting individual and community empowerment. Further, the NTS facet programming addresses the significant economic and social inequalities that significantly affect our communities in the areas of education, income, health, employment, and other social indicators of well-being.
The Rancocas Valley (NJ) Chapter actively contributes to this mission by implementing and participating in impactful programs such as financial literacy workshops, voter registration drives, expungement clinics, and other initiatives aimed at bridging gaps in access and opportunity. Through these efforts, the chapter addresses pressing community needs and supports the facet's vision of empowerment and equity.
