About Volunteers of America Mid-States

Founded in 1896, Volunteers of America (VOA) is a non-profit organization spanning four states dedicated to creating positive change in the lives of individuals and communities through a ministry of service. Our mission extends to providing housing for families, veterans, and low-income seniors, as well as offering care for individuals with developmental disabilities, restorative justice programs, and free HIV testing and education. While the term "volunteer" originally referred to anyone serving others as a vocation, today VOA is staffed by paid, mission-driven professionals committed to building thriving communities. Our culture is defined by flexibility, teamwork, and a shared sense of purpose.
