AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Coal & Health Impacts: President Trump announced nearly $700M in Defense Production Act funding to keep coal plants running, including support tied to West Virginia and a new coal export terminal in Oakland—moves critics warn could worsen air pollution and health risks. Nursing Home Watch: CMS data shows St. Mary’s Hospital (Cabell County) earned a 5-star rating for Q1 2026, while Pierpont Center (Marion) and Willows Center (Wood) landed at 2-star and 1-star respectively, highlighting uneven long-term care quality. Maternal Health: A new study links less sitting and more light activity/steps with lower risks of adverse pregnancy outcomes, offering a practical approach beyond traditional exercise advice. Cancer Screening Access: Bonnie’s Bus will bring mobile 3D mammograms and education to multiple WV counties in late June and early July, with help for eligible uninsured/underinsured patients. Community Mental Health: Partners are hosting a gathering to support emotional recovery as the one-year anniversary of the June 14, 2025 flood approaches in Ohio County. Legal System (Foster Care): The 4th Circuit revived a class-action challenge to West Virginia’s child welfare system, saying federal courts can address systemic constitutional rights issues.
