The Silver Valley Community Resource Center  is a nonprofit grassroots group. We have been in existence since 1986. We work closely with churches, unions, social service agencies, the elderly and people with low-income. We work with local, regional and national groups with similar interests.

Our primary focus has been: 

• Housing/homelessness
•  Adequate health care
• Economic development/jobs
• Environmental justice

Some of our successes include:
  

·    Working with the EPA in area lead clean-up 

·  Addressing welfare reform legislation

·  Refocusing the expenditure of monies from environmental studies to clean-up of the Bunker Hill Superfund Site

·  Raising minimum wage

·  Supporting legislation to remove taxes on donated food items to county food banks
