LOGAN â Three members of the Recovery Group of Southern West Virginia approached the Logan County Commission during their regular session Monday to request funding for repairs to several facilities.
The RGSWV operates two 24-hour recovery homes in the Logan area: the Marjorie Oakley Home for Women and the New Beginnings Home for Men. The programs offer a faith-based approach for individuals facing the drug recovery process.
Tom Zamow, who serves on the board of directors for the RGSWV, said the Marjorie Oakley home, which is an older house built in the earlier half of the 20th century, is in need of several significant repairs in order to meet the certifications required for a facility providing such services. Zamow said the cost of renovating the structure is $80,000.
