Volunteers of America Southwest Information

Volunteers of America Southwest has been helping the most vulnerable and under-served people achieve their full potential since 1896. For 123 years, we have been providing services that are designed locally to address specific community needs. Our common areas of focus include promoting self-sufficiency for the homeless and for others overcoming personal crises, caring for the elderly and disabled and fostering their independence, and supporting positive development for troubled and at-risk children and youth. We look at the whole person and address both urgent and ongoing needs, with the goal of helping people become as self-reliant as possible. We draw on more than a century of experience and the reach of a nationwide movement that is: - Bonded by a commitment to faith, human dignity, and social justice; - Dedicated to actively engaging volunteers in the community; and - Committed to the highest quality of service. Join us and together we can make a difference.
