West Virginians know the sense of pride and rich heritage that comes with being a native of the Mountain State. The Heritage Birth Certificate allows you to embrace and commemorate that connection for yourself or a loved one.
This heirloom is provided by The Health Statistics Center, a division of the Bureau for Public Health within the West Virginia Department of Health and Human Resources. In addition to the Heritage Birth Certificate, each order includes a certified copy of the original on file, which may be used for all legal purposes.
