What is OVEC?
     The Ohio Valley Environmental Coalition is a nonprofit organization. OVEC's mission statement: Our mission is to organize and maintain a diverse grassroots organization dedicated to the improvement and preservation of the environment through education, communication, and leadership development.

     Our operative area encompasses much of West Virginia and portions of southern Ohio and eastern Kentucky. The structure of OVEC is a common one: members, board of directors with officers, and staff members. What is uncommon is the committed participation of many ordinary citizens in OVEC, united for the common purpose of conserving the environment in which we all live.

     Our office is located on Fourteenth Street West in Huntington, West Virginia .  Our mailing address is Post Office Box 6753, Huntington, West Virginia 25773-6753. The telephone number is 304-522-0246.   Three full-time staff members work flexible schedules for they are involved with many activities outside of the office. Often one of them is available during the day.

     OVEC's board of directors is active.
