Nye County HHS and WIC Schedule 2026 Beatty Outreach, On-Site Appointments

Nye County Health & Human Services and Nevada WIC are scheduled to provide on-site services at the Beatty Community Center with appointments listed for 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., offering nutrition services for young families and in-person help applying for public assistance programs. The outreach is part of a quarterly schedule intended to bring county services to Beatty residents who face long travel distances to Pahrump and Tonopah offices.

County materials list quarterly Beatty dates for 2026 as February 3, May 5, August 4, and November 3, and an archived county news item repeatedly lists the February visit as Tuesday, February 4, creating a discrepancy on the February date. Both county announcements agree on the location and the 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. appointment window; residents should confirm the correct February date before traveling.

WIC will be on hand to serve infants, children under 5 years of age, and pregnant or new mothers. “The WIC Program serves infants, children under 5 years of age, and pregnant or new mothers. We provide healthy foods, nutrition education, and referrals to many other valuable community resources.” County HHS staff will be available for intake and to help with applications and determinations for a range of assistance programs. The county notice says, “We would like the opportunity to assist you in applying for any services that may be eligible for, i.e., Rent/Utility Assistance, Food Program, Medical Transportation Fuel Assistance, Employment Supportive Services Assistance, etc., and as well as intake for the State Funded Energy Assistance Program(EAP).”

Bringing WIC and HHS to Beatty addresses key public health and equity concerns in rural Nye County. For families without reliable transportation or with limited childcare, local appointments reduce barriers to nutrition supports and to enrollment in rent, utility, food, and energy assistance. Medical transportation fuel assistance and EAP intake may be especially important this winter as households seek help with heating and travel costs.

Practical details for residents: the primary on-site location is Beatty Community Center; appointment hours are listed as 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. For questions or to confirm dates and scheduling procedures, county contact points listed by HHS include the Pahrump office at 250 N. Hwy 160, Ste. 1, Pahrump, NV 89060, phone 775-751-7095; the Tonopah office at 101 Radar Rd., Tonopah, NV 89049, phone 775-482-8125; and the county contact block at 101 Radar Road, P.O. Box 153, Tonopah, NV 89049, phone 775-482-8191. The county indicates HHS and WIC visit Beatty quarterly and the WIC program listing on local resource sites is claimed by Nye County HHS.

For Beatty readers, the outreach is more than a calendar item: it is an opportunity to enroll infants and young children in nutrition supports, complete intake for energy assistance, and get one-on-one help with benefit applications without making the long drive to Pahrump or Tonopah. Confirm the February appointment date and whether WIC visits require a scheduled appointment or accept walk-ins, then plan to bring any required ID or verification documents. The county’s quarterly visits will return in May, August, and November, offering continued local access to health and social services.
