Class 13 Introductions

Michelle Kitchens
Little Rock - Pulaski County

Michelle is the legislative research coordinator for the Arkansas Farm Bureau Federation. As such, she assists the organization’s lobbyists with research on issues of interest to the agricultural and rural communities in Arkansas. She tracks legislation and produces regular newsletters for the Farm Bureau members covering state and national legislation. She was raised on a farm in Howard County and maintains a strong interest in agriculture and forestry.

She holds a B.A in communication management from Harding University.

Michelle believes the biggest problem in Arkansas communities is a lack of personal involvement and commitment to give something back. She says "Everyone needs to do some thing for the sake of their community."
