VASA EDUCATIONAL SERVICES

VASA Educational Services (doing business as the Vallejo Project) is a Vallejo, California–based 501(c)(3) nonprofit that runs youth-centered education, workforce training, and community programs focused on transitional-age youth (approximately ages 12–26). The organization describes its approach as trauma-informed and community-based, using programs such as The House (navigation/transitional housing), The Garden (urban agriculture/Unity Garden), The Workshop (skills and trades training), and a range of afterschool creative and tutoring programs.

In recent years the organization has grown its program footprint and formalized its nonprofit status (tax-exempt since 2020), filing annual Form 990 returns that show program-service activity and year-to-year revenue/expense figures consistent with a small but active community nonprofit. Self-reported program reach and service descriptions indicate cohorts and program enrollments (e.g., garden cohorts, afterschool participants, workforce trainees) that together serve dozens to several hundred community members per year depending on the program.
