Ways to pay your water bill Kroger no longer accepts utility payments. West Virginia-American Water Company provides a large network of convenient collection locations throughout the state. Although the Kroger's chain has decided to stop accepting all utility payments effective March 14, we are working hard to find another chain that we can add to our list. The Company regrets that Kroger has made this decision, therefore causing possible inconvenience to our customers.

Filling in the Missing Pieces Flexible Services for Families, which includes the Respite Care and Flexible Funding programs, participated in the second annual "Celebrating Connections" conference, at the Charleston Civic Center in February. The three day conference, which is sponsored by numerous state education and social service agencies, focuses on connecting communities through early childhood care and education. Flexible Services shared the "nuts and bolts" of developing a family focused and parent-driven collaborative through a one hour and 15 minute presentation called "Filling in the Missing Pieces." The session included a slide show depicting several families who have received assistance through the program, while their own recorded voices told their stories. In addition, four volunteer parent members of our Advisory Board traveled with us to share their feelings and motivation for their high level of involvement and commitment to this project. Packets of information were available for participants to take back to their own community and contact information was provided for any future questions they might have in developing their own programs.
