Summary

West Virginia’s Family Support Centers face a nearly 20% funding cut as the state battles budget shortfalls, jeopardizing vital services like job training and childcare for thousands of low-income families. Advocates warn the move could deepen poverty cycles, while officials justify the reallocation to meet other urgent financial needs. Attorney General Patrick Morrisey’s emphasis on fiscal responsibility adds tension to the debate, leaving the future of these centers—and the families they serve—uncertain as state leaders seek alternatives.
