Aid to Distressed Families of Appalachian Counties

Aid to Distressed Families of Appalachian Counties (ADFAC) began in the mid 1980’s as a local ecumenical effort to provide assistance to impoverished families. As the broad needs of the low-income community became evident, the faith-based collaborative moved to become a 501(c)(3) public charity in January, 1987. Over the years, ADFAC has honored its roots by developing a broad variety of programs designed to meet unfilled needs in the community and currently answers over 6,000 requests for assistance each year.

Types of Assistance: Utilities, Rent and Mortgage, Crisis Cupboard, School Supplies, Prescription Assistance, Weatherization GreenKits, Short-term counseling, Referrals; Affordable Housing
