The Norfolk Prevention Coalition (NPC) is excited to partner with Norfolk Community Services Board (CSB), Norfolk Public Library and the Norfolk Youth Council on our first ever Waves of Care Community Fair – a day dedicated to connection, compassion and support for our neighbors in need.

This meaningful event will take place on Saturday, January 31 from 10am to 2pm at Mary D. Pretlow Anchor Branch Library (111 W. Ocean View Ave.)

The Waves of Care Community Fair will bring together local service providers, nonprofits, and community partners to offer on-site resources, referrals, and support to individuals and families experiencing or at risk of homelessness. The event is also open to our entire community. Our goal is to provide a welcoming dignified environment where guests can access vital services—ranging from mental health & wellness, health care, opioid education, housing and benefits assistance, employment support and personal care items—all in one place.
