Learn how you can Protect and Sustain West Virginia Public Broadcasting.
Foster parents, caseworkers, attorneys, service providers, and other authorized participants in the state’s foster care system can use a new secure platform to share information and track updates.
The Communication & Operations Mobile Engagement Tool (COMET), from the West Virginia Department of Human Services (DoHS), is designed to strengthen communication and collaboration across the system.
By reducing delays and preventing miscommunication, the platform is expected to ensure that children and families receive timely, consistent support.
Phase 1 of COMET went live on September 2, just three months after the project began. This first phase established secure communication and case tracking.
Phase 2 will offer more tools, including a mobile application to further increase accessibility.
The following is the roll out schedule for Phase 1 of the program.

This episode of Us & Them first aired in 2023, and we’re sharing it again in the wake of the Sept. 10, 2025 assassination of Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA. President Donald Trump has credited Kirk’s organization with turning out young conservative voters in the 2024 election. Host Trey Kay talks with journalist Kyle Spencer about her book Raising Them Right and the decades-long conservative strategy to organize young voters, and with Abby Kiesa of Tufts University’s CIRCLE about what drives youth turnout. The conversation examines how campus organizing and money shape youth politics and where the system still falls short.
