Local Resource Guide

Introduction

This guide is intended to introduce the user to the various service agencies that offer programs of assistance to Lewis County residents. Agencies are listed alphabetically within categories, and detailed information is provided regarding agency address, phone numbers, hours of operation, services offered and eligibility guidelines.

This guide was developed during the completion of a community needs assessment and is the result of numerous face-to-face and phone interviews.  We thank each of these organizations for their input.  Special thanks to the Licking Valley CAP Head Start Program for use of their five-county area resource guide which served as the basis for the development of a manual specifically for Lewis County.

If you are aware of any omissions, updates, errors or clarifications, please contact People’s Self-Help Housing at 606-796-0811.  We will do our best to maintain an accurate, up-to-date resource guide for use by anyone who wishes to utilize or make referrals to the programs and services that are available.
