Get free help filing your taxes
At our Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) free tax centers, you can sit down with a certified volunteer who will help you review your documents, complete your tax forms, understand what you may owe – and ideally get the largest return possible. We can also help you enroll in financial education and coaching, or develop skills for the workforce.
