In a recent meeting, the Jefferson County Commission highlighted important community issues, such as a new proclamation honoring Provider Appreciation Day on May 9 and the establishment of a combined social services and grant coordinator position. With MountainHeart Community Services underscoring the significance of accessible child care—a crucial need given the lengthy wait times reported—the commission supported initiatives aimed at improving local child care options, which are vital for working families in towns like Charles Town and Ranson. By approving the new position, which focuses on securing funding for social services, the commission aims to enhance support for families and expand resources in the area.
