The main objective is to bring this resource to our mountain communities and not have to make a trip to Raleigh to obtain your documents such as Passport (Renewal and first time), Matricula Consular, Electoral Credential and Birth Certificates.
This event will take place at NC Cooperative Extension in Newland on the dates of May 8 to 12, attached flyers with more details, important that those interested who have to make their appointments are.
On Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays, during the process, resource fairs will be held for which we have invited several organizations, so feel free to participate at any time, either as an organization or as an individual volunteer.
Appointments will be opening today, let's spread the word since it is important to benefit our community (An average of 500 people is expected), so let your neighbor, friends and acquaintances know.
Greetings and any questions do not hesitate to contact me
