national trends & services (NTS)
National Trends & Services (NTS) is a program facet of The Links, Incorporated.
NTS Overview
National Trends and Services (NTS) was established in 1964 to effectively empower the communities and families with whom we work to eliminate disparities by reducing barriers to services through advocacy, education, and service. Under this Facet, Links members are connected to advocate for our communities.
The Wichita (KS) Chapter of The Links, Incorporated NTS Facet has put this mission into action through leadership development, civic engagement, and support for homeownership. Our past efforts include:
Leadership U – An annual African American High School Leadership Conference, elevating tomorrow’s leaders through workshops, mentorship, and career exploration.
Linked Up to Vote – Assist with voter engagement efforts and political forums in the city of Wichita, helping residents learn about candidates, discuss community concerns, and participate in the democratic process.
Habitat for Humanity – Supported HFH and provided essential homeownership starter kits to first-time homeowners celebrating their move to a new home.
