Who is VOICE?
Virginians Organized for Interfaith
Community Engagement
VOICE believes that people working together have the power to
change their communities and their country for the better. Drawing
on the proven power of person-to-person organizing, our work
transforms communities and builds the local power necessary to
create local, regional, and national change.
VOICE is a non-partisan broad-based organization of almost 50
faith congregations and community organizations. Christian, Jewish
and Muslim, new immigrants and longtime citizens, Republicans,
Democrats, and Independents, we are over 125,000 strong in
Arlington, Alexandria, Fairfax County and the Prince William area.
We take action on community issues impacting low and moderate
income families like decent and affordable housing, access to
health care, and immigrant rights.
We are Northern Virginians who love our region and our
commonwealth. We seek to usher in a New Dominion of Justice
and Participation.
VOICE is affiliated with the Industrial Areas Foundation (IAF), the nation’s
first and largest network of multi-faith citizen organizations, which has
seven decades of experience winning tough battles on housing, health
care, education, and other issues across the nation. VOICE works most
closely with Metro IAF affiliates in the East, Midwest and Southeast.
