FOR RESIDENTS Seeking DHHR Services

DHHR is fully committed to ensuring that essential services remain accessible to West Virginians during the COVID-19 outbreak. We are taking steps to ensure that access to DHHR-administered benefits and services, including SNAP, WV Works, Medicaid, and CHIP, are not interrupted. Applications for most DHHR benefit programs can be made online at https://www.wvpath.org/. Steps are being taken to ensure that renewal of benefits can either be extended or conducted without the need for a face-to-face interview. Local offices are expected to remain open with limited staff for as long as safety permits, in order to accommodate those who do not have online access. If you have any questions, call your local DHHR office or the Office of Client Services at 1-800-642-8589.
