Thank You for Supporting TASK!
We are very fortunate to have the continuing
support of many people, agencies, and
corporations. The TASK Summer Enrichment
Program would not be possible without the
support of the Tazewell County Board and Dr.
Brenda Lawson. We also benefit from the
continued support of the Speedway Children's
Charities United Way of the Virginias, Bluefield
Quota Club, CNX Gas, Clearview United Methodist
Women, Tazewell Rotary Club and donations from
local businesses, including Grant's Supermarket.
We have fundraising projects throughout the
year, including Ckickfila Spirit Nights,
raffles, and Pancake Breakfasts at Applebee's.
Please check our
FaceBook page for notification of these and
other events:
The Second Chance Rocks the Two
Virginias
ticket sales helped us meet our fundraising goal
last year and we are selling tickets again for
the June 29th, 2012 concert.
Please call our office if you are interested in
purchasing tickets (276) 979-0408.
We value our longstanding relationship with the
Tazewell County Board of Supervisors. They
provide us with office space in the Sheriff's
Dept. Building, and financial support over the
past 25 years.
We are thankful for our partnerships with all of
the agencies that serve children and families in
Tazewell County, including the Dept. of Social
Services, Cumberland Mt. Community Services,
Clinch Independent Living Services, Court
Service Unit, Health Dept. CVCA, Tazewell Public
Library, Care Connection for Children and the
Tazewell Recreation Dept.
Office Move – New Sheriff’s Department Building
As most of you know, in March, the Board of
Supervisors agreed to let us move into the old
Social Services Building at 315 School St. in
Tazewell. In the summer, the Sheriff’s
Dept. and 911 moved in and asked us to move to a
different location in the building. This
gave us more space and our own entrance.
Sheriff Caudill and Chief Hieatt made the move
very easy. We now have more room for
meetings, our resource collection, and storage.
Please visit and see our new space and browse
our collection of materials.
Handicapped access is through the front entrance
of the Sheriff’s Dept, until we get a ramp built
to our new entrance in the back. The best
way to enter our office is to park in the lot
behind the public library. The TASK office is
the white mobile unit attached to the back of
the Sheriff’s Dept. Building. If you have
difficulty finding us, please call
276-979-0408
Please Note that we do not receive mail at the
School St. address. Our mailing address is:
