About NVFS
Strong Families Create Healthy Communities
Northern Virginia Family Service operates on the principle that families are the foundation of a strong society. Families come in many different forms, but universally they model behaviors and teach lessons that transfer into the community. A strong family creates a healthy community.

Sometimes, individuals and families face issues that prevent them from being healthy and strong. Northern Virginia Family Service programs encourage, teach and empower people to improve their lives. This creates life-changing opportunities and helps establish the foundation for a strong Northern Virginia community.

The Leading Source of Help for Families in Need
Northern Virginia Family Service was established by volunteers in 1924 to help people in need. Today, it is a private, non-profit organization staffed by professionals trained in counseling, social work and community outreach. Northern Virginia Family Service is accredited by the Council on Accreditation of Services for Families and Children and is a member of the Alliance for Children and Families. Northern Virginia Family Service is funded by foundation grants, individual and corporate donations, government contracts, counseling fees and United Way.
