Some of what they do can happen remotely. Ask which parts, because it is rarely all of them and the 3 centers near Whitesburg differ on it.

Compare the specifics, because almost every center describes itself in the same words. Whoever answers the phone is not always whoever operates the program, because referral services are common in this field. Ask whether the person on the phone works for the center or for a referral service.
