“Connecting families with resources in Butler County to promote a healthy community.”

Meetings

B.C.V.O.W. believes there is value in meeting regularly to share information about community resources and agency updates.  Members want to be prepared to help families identify and access resources that are available in our community.  B.C.V.O.W. meetings are open to the public, but it primarily consists of helping professionals that serve Butler County.  Board meetings are held on the 4th Thursday of the month, from 1:00 to 2:30 PM, in person at the Butler County Public Health Office or via Zoom.  Meetings are typically held in January, February, March, May, August, September, and October.  The meeting calendar is subject to change depending on the needs of the group.  During the off months the group is working on the projects they support.
