BEAVER, WV (LOOTPRESS) — The Raleigh County Sheriff’s Office has officially announced the confirmed locations for the next “You Are Not Alone” Outreach, scheduled for Saturday, July 19, from 7:00 PM to midnight.
This compassionate, community-based event will be held at:
📍 Sheetz – 810 Ritter Drive, Beaver
📍 Kroger – Beaver Plaza (across from Sheetz)
Sheriff Frank Priddy and Chief Deputy Frankie Shelton extended their appreciation to the managers of both Sheetz and Kroger for generously allowing the use of their parking lots for this life-saving initiative.
“This was never about the Sheriff’s Office or about me,” said Sgt. B.J. Adkins, a lead organizer of the effort. “This is about building the communities back and helping those who are struggling with substance abuse, mental health, or homelessness. Organizations and human beings coming together for a greater cause. No questions asked and no judgment — just help, if you want it.”
The outreach will bring together local law enforcement, health services, recovery programs, and volunteers to provide on-the-spot assistance, resources, and support to anyone in need. There will be no pressure, paperwork, or prerequisites — only help, hope, and human connection.

As the outreach continues to grow, its mission remains simple yet powerful: meet people where they are, with dignity and compassion, and let them know they’re not alone.
For those in crisis or seeking a way out, July 19 could be a turning point — and the entire community is showing up to make that possible.
