A new resource center just opened in Martinsville celebrates the success of community health workers there. The Growth & Opportunity Center, 311 Brown Street, Martinsville, opened its doors to community partners at a midday networking event February 27. Partners toured the facility, met staff, learned about the programs to be offered at the center, and left behind their organization’s resource information.
That evening, families were welcomed to tour the building, participate in crafts, attend a read aloud with our MHC Partners for Children, and share their feedback on programming they’d like to see provided in our area.
Following the grand opening festivities, a ribbon cutting was held, welcoming the center and the expansion of United Way of Henry County/Martinsville programming and resources.
The Growth & Opportunity Center’s office hours are Monday through Thursday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Fridays and Saturdays by Appointment Only. For questions and more information, call the coordinator, at (276) 403-3516.
