   MORGANTON - Approximately 300 people's Social Security numbers are on an
   external computer hard drive missing from Blue Ridge Community Action, 800
   N. Green St.

   BRCA  Executive Director Mattie Patterson said the hard drive contains
   information on clients from four counties who have used the organization's
   services in the past four or five years. The external hard drive was used to
   back up information on clients.

   Patterson said it is unclear whether the hard drive is simply lost or if it
   was stolen.

   According  to the report filed with the Morganton Department of Public
   Safety, an employee discovered the hard drive was missing on Dec. 31. The
   employee tried to locate the hard drive at several locations she had visited
   in the past few days.

   Patterson said the organization is in the process of drafting a letter to
   the affected clients who should receive the notice within the next five
   days.

   BRCA provides services to children and adults. Its programs include child
   development, nutritional assistance, housing, community service and adult
   day care and health services.
