The NRA is unwavering in our commitment to the growth and success of our State Associations. The dedication of your NRA-ILA Grassroots Field Coordinator, Kelvin Curtis, and FrontLines Activist Leader (FAL), and Grassroots Coordinator for the Arkansas Rifle & Pistol Association, Jim Griffin, exemplifies this commitment. During a recent grassroots event, Kelvin and Jim had a booth set up during the Black Bear Bonanza in Bentonville. Jim, representing the NRA-state association, engaged with NRA members and supporters during this event. As the NRA stands firm, so do our State Associations. They are critical as the state-level delivery system for NRA programs and legislative information. The NRA depends on State Associations to promote firearms and the Second Amendment within their states and to motivate NRA-affiliated clubs and grassroots volunteers, like you, to activate NRA programs in their local communities. You can be confident that the NRA's support for our State Associations is steadfast and unwavering.
