Seth Wyatt was born and raised in central Arkansas. He went on a brief adventure to Kentucky for college to study philosophy, and is now back working and living in his beloved state of Arkansas. Seth served with Lead for America’s American Connection Corps in Little Rock, Arkansas, in the Office of the Mayor, from September 2024 to August 2025. During Seth’s service, he connected residents to digital skills courses, helped facilitate Little Rock’s citizens academy (called ROCK Academy), and brought Central Arkansas’s AmeriCorps organizations together for a celebration of the Mayor’s AmeriCorps Week Proclamation. 

Seth is now the Senior Service Corps Director for Arkansas Rural Health Partnership, where he is working to develop a Youth Mental Health Corps (YMHC) AmeriCorps program. Youth Mental Health Corps is an initiative where AmeriCorps members will receive training in evidence-based mental health models to support schools and community organizations in rural communities across the state. The initiative will provide pathways into behavioral health careers and critical mental health resources in rural communities.
