Cabinet departments

Following reorganization in 2019, Arkansas state government's executive branch contains fifteen cabinet-level departments. Many formerly independent departments were consolidated as "divisions" under newly created departments under a shared services model. Licensing boards, advisory boards, and commissions dealing with topics under the departments' purview are listed under each department. The governor appoints members to these boards and commissions, and the boards work with the departments to achieve their function. Departments are responsible for maintaining documentation, hosting meetings, and providing staff resources as needed for boards and commissions listed as under their purview. Where specific boards or commissions direct individual divisions or offices, they are listed immediately below.
