Chronicle Staff Report
U.S. Rep. Alma S. Adams has announced the opening of a satellite office in Winston-Salem and five other cities throughout North Carolina’s 12th Congressional District, which she represents.

The Winston-Salem office is in the Black Phillips Smith Neighborhood Government Services Center, 2301 N. Patterson Ave. Hours are Mondays and Wednesdays, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. The phone number is 336-275-9950.

Adams’ staff will be available to assist constituents with casework and various other services during the times the satellite offices are open.

Former N.C. Sen. Earline Parmon, who is now Adams’ outreach director, will be the staff person at the new office.
Parmon said Monday, May 18, that Adams wants all in the district to know that the office is there and personnel are ready to help them with their issues involving federal agencies such as with Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security and the Internal Revenue Service.

Her email address is Earline.Parmon@mail.house.gov.

In addition to Adams’ two district offices in Charlotte and Greensboro, constituents from the 12th District can visit either one of the six satellite offices during the days and hours they are open. 

“I want to make sure everyone in North Carolina’s 12th Congressional district has access to my office,” Adams said. “I understand that our Charlotte and Greensboro office might be out of reach for some individuals, which is why I am happy to announce the openings of the satellite offices in Concord, East Spencer, Lexington, Thomasville, Winston-Salem and High Point.
