Northern Ohio

Supporting and empowering people in need is a shared goal for all of Volunteers of America Ohio & Indiana's programs. Our ministry of service extends across Cleveland, Mansfield, Aurora, North Olmsted, Brunswick, Sandusky, Toledo and more to help those who need us most. We aim to meet the needs within our community so that's why we create programs designed to reach those who need our help. These programs not only assist individuals, veterans and families, but provide them with the tools to become successful for the rest of their life.
