Volunteers of America Los Angeles provides family support, early childhood education, and services for women, veterans, and adults since 189

Founded in 1896 on the core belief in the potential of every person regardless of circumstance, Volunteers of America Los Angeles (VOALA) is dedicated to realizing that potential through a broad scope of support and services. The organization serves all individuals regardless of race, sex, age, or religious preference. VOALA offers specialized programs for children emphasizing education, literacy, and health to promote stable home lives and smooth transitions into self-sufficient futures. A significant portion of their work focuses on women and children, addressing the needs of female veterans, single mothers, victims of domestic violence, and those challenged by poverty. The organization also provides relief and support services to men and women in need through best-practice program models. Additionally, VOALA addresses the myriad issues facing veterans and their families, including depression, anxiety, PTSD, TBI, substance use disorders, homelessness, unemployment, and lack of education. By working with families, schools, and the community, VOALA aims to build a stable foundation for a healthy and productive community.
