📣 The recent pause in SNAP benefits is deeply impacting families across our region, increasing the need for food assistance. As more neighbors turn to pantries, distribution drives, and community support, Blueprints is here to help.

📝 We’ve compiled updated food resource lists for:

– Neighboring West Virginia counties

📌 Please note: These resources are evolving, and while we strive to keep them current, smaller local efforts may not always be reflected.

Together, we can help our community stay nourished and supported 💙

Every October, we celebrate the children, educators, families, and communities who are part of our Head Start family. Since its founding in 1965, Head Start has provided high-quality education, health care, and family support to more than 40 million children nationwide.

📣This month, we invite you to be a part of #HeadStartAwareness by sharing a story, memory, or experience you’ve had with our program. Use the hashtag and follow along!

It’s Week 4 of Cybersecurity Awareness Month!

This week, we’re focusing on AI scams — where technology can mimic real people, voices, or companies to trick you.

We’ll show you how to think twice, verify what you see and hear, and protect yourself from AI-powered deception.

AI tools like ChatGPT can seem magical, but stay cautious!

Beware of fake apps and extensions. They might contain malware in the guise of a productivity tool. Only download apps and browser extensions from trusted sources.

Watch this true story to learn some of the precautions to take with such tools: https://www.wizer-training.com/hubfs/SAMK-2025-TA/W4-Extension-Story-MS.mp4
