Catholic Charities West Virginia (CCWVa) recently relocated its Romney Office to a space on East Main Street in Romney.
“This new space will allow us to provide services in a more professional manner, respecting the dignity of those we serve,” said Jeremy Wanless, CCWVa Eastern Regional Director.
The CCWVa Romney Office provides emergency financial assistance for those facing an immediate crisis associated with housing or utilities, as well as case management services where individuals and families work one-on-one with a CCWVa case manager to reach their long-term goals and find stability.
The office also offers a personal care pantry with hygiene and cleaning items.
Bishop Mark Brennan blessed the office space as staff, volunteers and community partners gathered to celebrate the grand opening.
“We’re incredibly grateful to Bishop Brennan and our dedicated volunteers and donors for their ongoing support of our mission,” said Wanless.
The space also provides the opportunity for Catholic Charities to gather community partners to further develop ways all can work together to best meet the needs of the community.
“This office is a testament to our commitment to the Romney and surrounding communities, and we look forward to continuing our work here for many years to come,” said Wanless.
The CCWVa Romney Office serves Hampshire, Hardy, Mineral and Grant Counties.
