Leadership

We provide the highest-quality community-based Waiver Services, so members can build lives of greater independence.

Jeff Lambert

Executive Director, Principal Founder, CARF Surveyor

“AFS was built as a tribute to my sister, who lived with an intellectual and developmental disability and relied on Waiver Services herself. Everything we do honors her, and everyone like her.”

Amber Selby

Amber earned her bachelor’s degree in Accounting from the University of Arkansas–Fort Smith in 2007 and obtained her CPA license in 2013. She began her career in public accounting, where she gained extensive experience in accounting, financial management, and business operations.

In 2022, Amber joined Arkansas Family Supports as Director of Finance, bringing her accounting expertise and commitment to the organization’s mission to her role. She oversees the organization’s financial operations and is a member of the Arkansas Society of Certified Public Accountants.

In her role at Arkansas Family Supports, Amber also serves as a representative payee for several members, helping them manage their Social Security benefits and make responsible financial decisions that support their individual needs and goals. She is committed to maintaining accurate records, protecting members’ funds, and ensuring their resources are used appropriately.

Outside of her professional career, Amber’s greatest joy is her family. She is a devoted wife and mother of six. When she isn’t working, you can often find her supporting her children at dance competitions, sporting events, and the many activities that keep her family busy. Amber values family, community, service, and financial stewardship and brings that same dedication to her work each day.

Dustin McClellan

Dustin serves as the IT Manager at AFS, where he oversees the agency’s technology and systems with one guiding principle: if something is difficult, repetitive, or requires twelve clicks when three would do, there is probably a better way.

With more than 20 years in human services, Dustin began his career working at a preschool for children with disabilities and later managed two preschool programs. Along the way, a passion for solving problems and improving how organizations work eventually led him to IT, where he now focuses on technology, automation, emerging tools, and eliminating unnecessary work with almost unreasonable enthusiasm. Dustin firmly believes the best solution is usually the one that accomplishes the most while requiring everyone to do the least. He considers this efficiency. Others are free to use less flattering terminology.

Outside of work, Dustin enjoys cooking and grilling, follows college football with a completely reasonable level of emotional investment, and maintains a LEGO collection that has moved beyond “hobby” and into questionable asset management. He is also a frequent visitor to Walt Disney World, where he enjoys the food, attractions, and watching thousands of adults temporarily lose the ability to understand how lines work. Despite all available evidence, Dustin remains optimistic about technology, people, and the possibility that someday everyone will read the email before asking the question.
