A Hoarding Alliance local resource guide
If clutter or a home-safety concern is weighing on you or someone you care about, you deserve a respectful place to begin. This guide brings together local and regional options for support, care, housing, and practical needs without assuming what the right next step should be.
Start here - Fight the Blight
Fight the Blight is the nonprofit front door for virtual peer groups and hoarding-related support. We can help you ask what options may fit, at your own pace. You do not have to share more than you want to in order to start a conversation.
For immediate danger, fire, rescue, or a medical emergency, call 911. Moorefield lists its own police and fire departments and Fraley Ambulance Service; the Town and Hardy County publish separate non-emergency contacts. For behavioral-health crisis support, call or text 988, call Potomac Highlands Guild's 24-hour crisis line at 1-800-545-4357, or call/text HELP4WV at 1-844-435-7498. West Virginia 211 is for non-emergency resource navigation, not emergency dispatch. Program scope, eligibility, capacity, and response times vary; none of these listings replaces 911.
First conversations
You do not need to know the perfect service name before reaching out. These organizations can help you understand the landscape and identify a next step.
When public programs or grants are not the right fit, ask The Peer Tree whether practical support is available in Moorefield or Hardy County and confirm cost, scope, travel, and scheduling before making plans.
Unburied offers peer support, groups, and tools for people affected by hoarding and clutter concerns and the people who care about them. It is not a crisis service or a substitute for emergency care.
Potomac Highlands Guild lists a Moorefield clinic and serves Hardy County with behavioral-health services. Call to confirm current intake, available care, fees or coverage, and whether an appointment or referral is needed. For a crisis, call its 24-hour line or 988; call 911 for immediate danger.
The Moorefield clinic provides primary and acute care. E.A. Hawse Health Center says it accepts Medicaid, Medicare, CHIP, private insurance, and private pay, and offers an income- and household-size-based sliding fee scale for uninsured patients; call to confirm current services, costs, and availability.
Call or text 988 for mental-health or suicide-related crisis support. If someone is in immediate physical danger, needs urgent medical care, or there is a fire or rescue emergency, call 911.
HELP4WV can discuss behavioral-health or substance-use needs and help identify appropriate state resources. Call or text 1-844-435-7498 or use its online chat; call 911 for a medical emergency or immediate danger.
Call 211, text your ZIP code to 898-211, or use the online resource search to ask about current local services and eligibility. If 211 cannot be reached from a phone, the state lists 1-833-848-9905. This is a non-emergency service; call 911 for immediate danger or urgent medical, fire, or police response.
Safety and stability
These pathways serve different situations. Read the labels carefully before calling, especially when a response may involve crisis care, protective services, shelter, housing rules, legal advocacy, or emergency dispatch.
Call 911 when someone faces immediate danger, a fire, a rescue need, or a serious medical emergency. Do not delay emergency help to contact a non-emergency office or this directory.
Hardy County lists 304-530-0291 as the emergency-services non-emergency number. Use it for routine questions, not to report an active emergency or request urgent dispatch.

Hardy County publishes 304-530-0222 for Sheriff law-enforcement inquiries. For active danger or urgent police response, call 911 instead of this office number.

Potomac Highlands Guild publishes a 24-hour crisis line at 1-800-545-4357 and lists Hardy County among its service counties. Its behavioral-health crisis pathway is not fire, police, ambulance, or emergency medical dispatch; call 911 for immediate danger.

The state lists Adult Protective Services among this office's programs. If an adult may be experiencing abuse, neglect, or exploitation, contact the agency to ask about its process; the presence of clutter by itself is not proof of abuse or neglect. For immediate danger, call 911.
Hardy County publishes the Poison Control number 1-800-222-1222. If a person is unconscious, having trouble breathing, or faces another immediate life-threatening emergency, call 911.
People and practical help

A note from the Alliance
This guide is anchored in Moorefield, West Virginia, and includes city, county, state, nonprofit, national, and independent pathways. A listing here does not mean Fight the Blight endorses every provider or can guarantee availability. The Hoarding Alliance is not a city or county agency, therapy practice, emergency service, or cleanup company. We will keep reviewing this page, but please confirm details directly before relying on them.
