community service

Grove Collaborative Services enjoys working in the community and finds it necessary to continue the success of the organization.  Participants will be required to spend a few hours a month giving back to the community in whatever area in which they are comfortable. 

 

GCS has volunteered with the Food Bank of Southeastern Virginia, Helping Kids Teens America, Faithfully Working Hands Inc. and Teens with a Purpose. We always welcome new opportunities to volunteer in the Tidewater Region.

young adult housing initiative

Grove Collaborative Services welcomes young adults, ages 18-21, in Hampton Roads who have aged out of foster care. Participants are required to fill out a housing application and participate in an interview and background check. Our homes are safe and affordable. When you exit the housing program, not only will you have an understanding of how to manage a household, you will have skills to live your version of a successful life.
