Volunteers of America Chesapeake & Carolinas

At Volunteers of America Chesapeake & Carolinas (VOACC), we are at the forefront of social innovation, pioneering new models of care and service delivery to uplift our nation's most vulnerable populations. Through our groundbreaking approach, we are revolutionizing the integration of housing, health, and human services to create a comprehensive support system that fosters self-reliance, dignity, and hope. Our work is driven by a commitment to evidence-based practices and a relentless pursuit of transformative solutions. We leverage technology and data-driven insights to inform our strategies, ensuring that our programs are not only compassionate but also highly effective in addressing the complex challenges of homelessness, behavioral health disorders, and community re-entry. By developing and implementing innovative programs, we are creating sustainable pathways to stability and well-being for thousands of individuals and families.

Our dedication to innovation is exemplified by our development of specialized services that meet the unique needs of the communities we serve across Maryland, Virginia, the District of Columbia, and the Carolinas. From establishing medical respite programs in partnership with managed care organizations to launching Family Focused Recovery initiatives that keep families together during substance use treatment, we are constantly evolving to meet emerging needs. We were among the first to be awarded an Evergreen Charter status by our national office, a testament to our high standards and pioneering spirit. At VOACC, we don't just provide services; we build healthy communities for all by tackling the social determinants of health and creating a future where everyone has the opportunity to thrive. Our visionary approach, combined with over a century of experience, positions us as a leader in creating lasting, positive change.
