Live Well Alleghany Highlands works to enhance the health and well-being of all who live, work, and play in Alleghany and Covington. We are a partnership convened by the Virginia Department of Health, comprised of individuals representing local governments, non-profits, healthcare providers, colleges, school districts, faith-based groups, community organizations, businesses, and community members. Live Well Alleghany Highlands’ top three focus areas for 2019-2022 are: (1) Reduce substance use in youth and adults (2) Increase kindergarten readiness and early literacy and (3) Increase knowledge of and access to community resources. The Knowledge of Resources Action Team, working on the third focus area, identified the need for a community resource guide to support community members who are seeking information and referrals to the many organizations who can provide assistance.
