Introducing PRI Partners: A New Model for Community Partnership

If you’ve heard us mention the Director’s Club before, here’s an update: we have a new name, one that we think truly captures what this PRI and our community are really about.

PRI Partners is our new annual giving society. The rebrand reflects something we wanted to say more clearly: advancing psychiatric care in Arkansas takes a collective effort, and the people who make unrestricted annual gifts to PRI are genuine partners in that work.

What does that support make possible? Flexibility. In a field where needs shift quickly, unrestricted funding lets us move when it matters. PRI Partners contributions go toward early-career researchers who need support to launch their research programs, education and training that builds the next generation of providers, and emerging priorities we can’t always predict in advance.

The support of PRI Partners enables us to adapt quickly, and helps ensure that PRI’s work remains responsive, pragmatic, and focused on mental health services and outcomes that matter to Arkansans.

Join PRI Partners Today

Your partnership helps PRI respond to emerging mental health needs, support innovative research, and train the next generation of psychiatric providers.
