Amy Hale serves as co-chair of Arkansas Delta Community Connections, where she also oversees the organization’s social media presence and website development. Passionate about communication, outreach, and community collaboration, Amy works to help connect organizations, leaders, and resources throughout the Arkansas Delta region.

Amy is actively involved in numerous community and nonprofit organizations across Eastern Arkansas. She is a dedicated member of the Junior Auxiliary of St. Francis County, where she has served on the executive board and as a committee chair. She also serves with the Cross County Hometown Health Coalition, managing the coalition’s social media and website while helping support outreach and community engagement initiatives.

Professionally, Amy works in marketing and community outreach for AnyWay Technologies and Star Creative Solutions in Wynne. She holds a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Arkansas State University and has a strong passion for serving her community, expanding mental health access, and advocating for neurodivergent individuals and families.

Following a personal loss connected to addiction and substance abuse, Amy became a passionate advocate for addiction awareness, recovery support, mental health education, and breaking the stigma surrounding substance abuse and recovery services. She volunteers with organizations including Living Waters Recovery Ministry and The Compassionate Friends of Eastern Arkansas, helping strengthen their outreach, social media presence, and community awareness efforts. Amy first became involved with The Compassionate Friends after attending the organization’s annual Candlelight Ceremony. While she has not personally experienced the loss of a child, she felt deeply moved by the mission and wanted to help bring greater awareness and visibility to the organization and the families it serves. She often jokingly shares that she “lovingly bullied” chair Cassandra Maggitt into allowing her to launch the TCFEA Facebook page to help expand the group’s outreach and community connection.

Outside of her community work, Amy is the proud mother of four children — Ethan, Rowan, Madison, and Aubrey — who keep her busy and constantly on the go in her “free time.”
