Our Directory
Accurate information about local programs and services is essential to staying well and to assisting a friend, spouse or family member with staying well. Good information can be hard to find, particularly in a time of crisis. That’s why we devote so much of our effort and funding to our service provider directory. Our directory contains more than 21,000 resources available to all Virginians. Whether you need to find a flu shot clinic, a job coach, a ride to the doctor, a support group, a domestic violence shelter, or a nearby nature trail, we hope you will find it here.
There are two ways to search for local services on this website. The Quick Search uses the topic you request and your ZIP code or city, or county name to determine your search results. From the Help Me Find Services button (Advanced Search), you may further refine your search, or search by organization name.
When you conduct a search, your results are listed in the following categories:
- Local Services, (including direct matches to your search topic and other related services),
- Statewide Services,
- Articles, and
- Related Links.
You may sort your results by distance, city/county, or Agency Name.
Data Collection
As you use our directory, you’ll notice that for each resource we provide more than just a name, telephone number, and address. Our goal is to give you enough information to make an informed decision about whether a service is right for you or your loved one. To do this, we adhere to data standards recommended by the Alliance of Information and Referral Systems.
Information Partners
The disAbilityNavigator.org database is a work in progress—our data set changes daily as we learn of emerging services or changes in existing programs. The data collection is challenging—especially in the constantly evolving health and human services industry. Our staff is passionate about bringing you accurate information about available community resources. We travel many paths and keep digging to discover the most comprehensive information about every program in our database.
We are fortunate that so many organizations, professionals and volunteers lend their experience and expertise to the creation and maintenance of the service provider directory. In addition to our Our Partners our information providers include:
- Area Agencies on Aging
- Medical Society of Virginia
- Virginia Alliance of Information and Referral Systems
- Virginia Department for the Aging
- Virginia Department of Health
- Virginia Department of Health Professions
- Virginia Department of Social Services
- Virginia Health Information
Most importantly, we also rely on local services providers and you to keep us updated on changing services in Virginia’s neighborhoods and communities. We always welcome comments or suggestions about how to improve the directory. Tell us if you find what you need, or if you couldn’t find the help you needed. Your feedback helps us improve our service to you and your community.
