Children thrive in a nurturing environment. Children who have been nurtured in a VOALA program continue to be more cognitively, socially and emotionally developed than those who did not attend our programs.

We work with children and their families, placing an emphasis on education, literacy, and health. The skills and confidence gained from our programs promote a stable home life and ensure a smooth transition into kindergarten and beyond.

Educational, health, and child care services are provided to children each year throughout L.A. County in our Head Start and Early Head Start programs. For children under 3 years of age and their parents, we offer EARLY EDUCATION, CHILD DEVELOPMENT, NUTRITION AND PARENTING SUPPORT, and those ages 3 to 5 also receive preparation for elementary school.

We serve 160 children annually in our child care programs. Our General Child Care programs for pre-school students between the ages of 2 and 5, and our After School Care programs for those enrolled in kindergarten through the fifth grade provide EDUCATIONAL, ARTISTIC AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITIES for the children of low-income families.

The developmentally disabled have such a challenging path – and too little is said of those who have dedicated their lives to watching over them. Our in-home Caregiver Services provides much-needed RESPITE AND RELIEF from these efforts for as many as 500 L.A. families  annually, enabling the primary caregivers to have the time to take care of other needs and REGENERATE THEIR SPIRITS.

We prepare 4000 NUTRITIONAL MEALS A DAY in three commercial kitchens we own and operate, and deliver them to all the children enrolled in VOALA programs throughout Greater Los Angeles.
