Welcome to Volunteers of America Northwest Ohio

Volunteers of America is a national, nonprofit, faith-based organization dedicated to helping those in need rebuild their lives and reach their full potential.

Through thousands of human service programs, including housing and healthcare, Volunteers of America helps nearly 2 million people in over 400 communities.  Since 1896, our ministry of service has supported and empowered America's most vulnerable groups, including at-risk youth, the frail elderly, men and women returning from prison,  homeless individuals and families, people with disabilities, and those recovering from addictions.  Our work touches the mind, body, heart--and ultimately the spirit--of those we serve, integrating our deep compassion with highly effective programs and services.

Throughout Northwest Ohio Volunteers of America provides housing to the homeless, elderly and disabled, support services to individuals and families, and programming to assist ex-offenders in returning to the community.  Our programs currently operate in Lucas, Erie, Ottawa, Seneca, and Sandusky counties.

Volunteers of America Northwest Ohio is a United Way of Erie County member agency.
