People first.Then the stuff.A Fight the Blight initiative

Start here - Fight the Blight

Start with the kind of help you want

You do not need to have everything sorted out before asking a question. Choose a first step that feels manageable, and confirm directly what a service can offer in your situation.

If you are unsure where to begin, Fight the Blight can be the first conversation about hoarding-related support and virtual peer groups. You can ask one question, share only what feels comfortable, and decide what to do next.

Role: nonprofit hoarding-support and virtual-group front door; geography: ask about options for Danville and Boyle County; cost/eligibility: contact the organization to confirm current services and eligibility; emergency limit: not emergency dispatch, crisis response, or therapy.

For immediate danger

If someone is in immediate danger, there is a fire, or urgent medical help is needed, call 911. For emotional distress or a behavioral-health crisis, call or text 988 or New Vista’s 24-hour line at 800-928-8000. Peer support and online information are not emergency response.
