Behavioral Health Advocacy

Our advocates assist West Virginians living with mental and behavioral health disorders, by promoting community supports and preserving access to services, in turn helping them meet their challenges with dignity and hope.

Long-Term Care Ombudsman

Our Ombudsmen work in West Virginia’s long-term and elder care facilities to ensure residents’ rights are protected and upheld. They hear grievances from residents and work with facilities, caregivers, and relatives to resolve issues.
