Community Resources

Identifying resources in the community to address your specific needs can be an overwhelming task. Here is a list of resources I have found to be helpful. It is helpful to know that when in doubt, you can typically call your local DSS or Senior Resource Center and explain your situation and someone can help point you in the right direction. NHC DSS can be reached at 910-798-3400. NHC Senior Resource Center can be reached at 910-798-6400.
