Assistance with Food Insecurities

Community Resources

 

At Wood Health Company, Women’s Care of Wood County, Falcon Health, and Wood County Hospital, we are deeply committed to the well-being of our patients and the wider community. We recognize that many individuals and families face challenges that extend beyond healthcare, including food insecurity, housing, and other essential needs. 

According to Feeding America, 1 in 7 households in the U.S. struggles with food insecurity, with approximately 15 million children affected. In Wood County alone, 14.8% of residents—around 18,840 people—experience uncertainty about where their next meal will come from.

Access to reliable resources is essential, and we are proud to partner with local organizations to offer support in critical areas such as food, housing, healthcare, and more. Increasing awareness of these resources is a key part of our mission to strengthen community health.

United Way 211 is a free, confidential service that connects individuals to a wide range of support services, including food assistance, housing, utility help, healthcare access, and mental health resources. 

Wood County No Wrong Door offers guidance and connection to local agencies, ensuring that residents can access the assistance they need without navigating multiple systems. Whether you're facing financial hardship, seeking healthcare resources, or need help with housing, they can direct you to the right support.
