WV Updates & Information
April 16th, 2020
The West Virginia Development Office continues to share information to the businesses and communities in West Virginia as we receive it. We just received updates and new information from multiple local, state and federal resources that you should be aware of. This eamil has a lot of information and website links for you to read, research and discuss. I hope the information and assistance items are useful and can be used to address many of the issues and questions that you have brought to our attention.
Please read each thoroughly, as a few of these may take some time to review and utilize:
