On Sept. 12, Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin presented more than $9.3 million in grant funding to community support groups and justice programs across the state. The funding will be used to develop new programming and enhance existing initiatives to support West Virginia’s communities and state justice system.
“With this needed funding, community programs from all corners of our state will be better equipped to serve children and families and further strengthen West Virginia’s justice system.” Gov. Tomblin said. “We are expanding direct services to victims of crime, putting programs in place to help at-risk youth get back on track and preparing parents with the life skills they need to foster a healthy, nurturing environment to raise their families.”
The following Greenbrier County entities received funding:

• Family Refuge Center: $168,120. These funds will provide for a portion of the salaries of the full-time lead shelter advocate, a daytime shelter advocate, overnight shelter advocate, Monroe County advocate, Pocahontas County advocate, and part-time weekend shelter advocate, and victim advocate to provide direct services to victims of domestic violence and sexual assault in Greenbrier, Monroe, and Pocahontas counties.
• CASA of the Eleventh Judicial Circuit, Inc. $42,424. These funds will provide for a portion of the part-time salary of a volunteer coordinator and full-time program director to provide direct services to victims of child abuse in Greenbrier and Pocahontas counties.
