The Hope Lions heard from one of their own Monday when Victoria Bradley gave a program about the Central Arkansas Development Council.  Bradley is the Supervisor of the Hope office and explained the organization is a non-profit founded in 1965.  CADC absorbed the counties served by the Southwest Arkansas Development Council when it went away.  She noted they have such programs as LI-HEAP, a program to help local residents who have occasional troubles paying their utility bills, Medical Transportation, weatherization services, commodities, rental assistance, labor assistance, specialized telephones,  and a diaper assistance program.  Bradley noted they would welcome volunteers with the organization.  For info you can call 870-724-5080.  The local office is located on the west end of the Cadence Bank building at 200 South Elm in downtown Hope.
