File Your Taxes for FREE with IRS Certified Volunteers
For the past 17 years Nazareth Housing’s free Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) Tax Program has assisted thousands of families and individuals—including immigrants and ITIN holders, seniors, and those living with disabilities—to receive their full tax refund while connecting them with services that build financial security. Last year, more than 900 tax returns were prepared and filed at no cost.
Check back in late January 2027 for more information about booking an appointment to file your 2026 tax return.
