-- Pocahontas County Multipurpose Community Center:  $3 million has been requested for the Pocahontas County Commission for the construction of a Pocahontas County Multipurpose Community Center, Marlinton, West Virginia, which would promote the health and wellness of county residents, and provide youth and adult alcohol and drug prevention programs.  Along with the prevention efforts, the center would offer alternatives to unhealthy behavior, such as:  after school programs, senior fitness and wellness programs, junior law enforcement programs, health and fitness challenges, as well as art, drama, and music and dance classes.  Recent statistics show that Pocahontas County ranks first in the State of West Virginia for the number of youth and adult drug-related arrests, first for the number of youth and adults in treatment for alcohol and/or substance abuse, and first in the rate of drug offenses known by law enforcement.  The county ranked second in the state for youth alcohol use, with 32.8% of students in grades 8-11 drinking at least once a month.

-- Hampshire County Special Services Center (HCSSC):  $1 million has been requested for the HCSSC, Romney, West Virginia, for the acquisition of an additional facility.  The center provides services and employment to individuals with developmental disabilities.  This additional space would enable the center to expand the number of services provided, to meet the increasing demand within the area for those services, and to increase overall employment at the center.   The center currently serves 65-75 people on a daily basis, and there is a waiting list of those in need of the services provided by the center.  The expansion would more than double the number of individuals served.  Services include life-skills training, job skills, vocational training, and other valuable skills needed for gainful employment and self sufficiency.
