Many of Arkansas Forward initiatives are already underway and I look forward to this project continuing and reducing the burden of government on our taxpayers.”“The charge from Governor Sanders for the Arkansas Forward team was clear: improve citizen experience, improve employee experience, and create savings and efficiencies. We are excited to deliver to her the Arkansas Forward progress report, which reflects months of hard work from all executive agencies and functional groups. We will continue to evaluate opportunities for improvement and work to implement these findings,” said Secretary of Transformation and Shared Services Leslie Fisken.
