Who We Are
When Volunteers of America was founded, a “volunteer” was someone whose vocation was to serve others through a commitment to a mission. Today, we are still staffed by mission-driven professionals working to support individuals and build thriving communities, only now we call them “employees.”
Volunteers of America of Florida engages Floridians in need to create positive life changes through compassionate support services.

💙 September is National Suicide Prevention Month.Sometimes, someone’s struggle is hidden behind a smile, a routine, or simply saying, “I’m fine.” This month, let’s make space for honest conversations and remind the people around us that they do not have to face difficult moments alone.A simple check-in can open the door to connection. Listening without judgment can make a difference. And reaching out for help is a sign of strength, not weakness.Let’s choose compassion, make connection a priority, and remind one another: you matter, your story matters, and there is hope. 💙#SuicidePreventionMonth #VOAF #HopeInAction #MentalHealthAwareness #YouMatter #StrongerTogether
