New Facility

We are so pleased to announce that we recently broke ground on a new ADA building! Currently, the program is housed in two adjoining structures located next to each other on Azalea Street in the Shiloh community.  One, a 2,300 square foot, single story wood structure was built in 1989.  A 700 square foot temporary mobile unit was put into service in the mid 1990’s.  Both structures, while maintained frequently, have reached the extreme end of their capabilities to serve our needs.

The new facility will be a 7,000 square foot structure designed by Bowers, Ellis, and Watson of Asheville with the needs of our participants and staff in mind.  Local contractor, Goforth Builders, will be constructing the state-of-the-art facility.  Funding for the project comes in part from the Janirve Foundation, Hillsdale Fund, and other generous individual donors.
