Info

Services and Programs VCS Inc. is a unique non-profit family and community service agency located in Rockland County New York. Since 1970, VCS has been a leader in developing innovative programs and delivering services with a pioneering combination of expert professional staff and specially trained, caring, and committed volunteers. During 2010, the agency provided a wide range of services to individuals, families, youth and community groups, including counseling, mentoring, information, referral and advocacy, and nationally renowned training and awareness programs in the areas of domestic violence prevention and social justice. VCS is dedicated to identifying the gaps in existing social services networks and responding with accessible and cost-effective programs to help people in need. The agency also focuses on raising awareness - both locally and on a national level - of social injustices and on developing programs to address those issues. As a result, new, targeted programs are continually being developed as needs are recognized. Some of the populations served by VCS programs and services include families in crisis; young people; court-ordered men who batter their intimate partners; the elderly and their caregivers; lesbian, gay, bi-sexual, transgender and questioning individuals and their families and allies; immigrants; cancer survivors; relatives who are caring for the next generation; parents of children with special educational needs; people with developmental disabilities, students who need additional assistance with their school work. Professional populations that are served by and collaborate on agency programs include schools and school administrators; other social service agencies; public-policy makers; the courts and the justice system, local, state and national organizations; elected officials; businesses; and institutions. Agency funding comes from government grants, donations, fundraising and service fees. All of the various VCS community services and programs are provided in Rockland County with selected programs offered in other locations including: Sullivan County, Orange County, Westchester County, and four boroughs in the City of New York. 4
