VOA is committed to helping those in need reach their full potential through comprehensive treatment that gives people the skills, tools, and support to restore emotional and financial independence. We puts clients first. We focus on client strengths, needs, abilities, and their pref...erences, specializing in client-centered, trauma-informed care based on a harm reduction framework. Our programs are safe and supportive with the ultimate goal of every client to be self-sufficient and successfully reach their full potential in work, family, and relationships. Our clients arrive in our care in acute crisis; not only are they in the early phase of substance use and disorder treatment, they are likely to have a mental health diagnosis, be homeless, disengaged from the labor market, lost child custody, justice-involved, and experience chronic relapse and demoralized by feelings of shame and self-punishment. Simply put, we engage with the hardest to serve clients.
