The page you are viewing now will be slowly phased out. We will send follow requests to our current followers to make sure you don't miss our posts!

See below for answers to questions you may have:

Why are you moving accounts?
We are no longer able to log into this Facebook account. We lack the authentication info Facebook is asking for, and our attempts to recover it have been rejected. We’ve tried many things over the last several months, but eventually decided making a new account was our only option. We apologize for the inconvenience it may cause.

If you don’t have access, how have you been posting?
Our Instagram account (which we can log into) is linked with this page, meaning posts uploaded there appear here. We can also post from the Meta Business Suite. These are imperfect solutions, as there are many things on Facebook we haven't been able to do (such as answer DMs).

Have you tried reaching out to Facebook support?
Facebook does not offer live support for access issues.

How do I prevent this from happening to my own non-profit?
Make sure the personal account connected to your company's page is that of a real person who can verify their identity using a driver's license. This account was attached to an account named Irene Wortham, our namesake, who passed away a decade before driver's licenses became mandatory in the state of North Carolina.

Again, we apologize for the inconvenience, but we feel this is our best option to keep you informed about events at the Irene Wortham Center. You can also find our content on Instagram or our email newsletter. Thank you for your support!

Empowering children and adults with developmental or socioeconomic challenges in Asheville, NC, to lead healthy, happy, and more independent lives since 1961 🦋

This week, first responders visited the Early Learning Center to teach the kids about what they do in the community. 🚒🚑🚓

They enjoyed exploring the fire truck and trying on fire gear. Two EMTs came (one of them has a child in our school!) and showed them their ambulance and medical equipment. However, the highlight for many of them was the police service dog Kora.

Thanks to our visitors for teaching the children and adults about their careers. It’s a valuable part of connecting those we serve with the broader Asheville community.🌄
