The Alliance of Rural Communities of Trinidad and Tobago - ARCTT

 The Alliance of Rural Communities of Trinidad & Tobago (ARC), is a non-profit organization founded in 2014 and made up of residents of rural and semi-rural communities and their urban allies. ARC is made up of a core advisory team of individuals and affiliated rural community companies (that were formed with ARC’s support) as well as our supportive customer base.

ARC is a non-profit organization that is responsible for continued training and support and expansion of the current community groups and new projects. As such, partnering with them for this project will be ideal.
