Office expansion complete
We have come together at last! Just before the holidays, Tillamook County Women’s Resource Center was able to consolidate its offices into one, larger space.
For the past couple of years, our Development, Education and Outreach staff members have occupied small quarters in the back of the Muddy Waters building on 3rd Street, across from the Elks Lodge.
"It was great having some auxiliary space," said Education & Outreach Program Manager Romy Carver, "but being a block away sometimes posed real communication and coordination challenges."
So in the fall, TCWRC was able to negotiate a lease for the vacant office space next door to its existing offices at 2nd and Ivy, doubling the space of the main office and providing room for a larger conference and training area, as well as a "storefront" area for the outreach staff.
"This gives us a chance to be more accessible to the public and allows us to consolidate things like our telephone and computer systems," Carver added. "Now it is much easier for us to coordinate all of our day-to-day activities with staff in the main office, while still maintaining the security and privacy of our advocates and their clients."
Occupying the new space are Carver, Development Coordinator David Guard, Education Coordinator Deborah Yund and Prevention Coordinator Terri Neimann.
The new office space is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, phone (503) 842-8294.
