Volunteer Fairfax provides Alternative Community Service (ACS) placements for individuals who need to complete court‑ordered or attorney-referred, or other mandated community service in Fairfax County.
Our ACS program connects eligible participants with approved nonprofit organizations and offers structured, supervised service opportunities that meet court or institutional requirements.
Court‑Ordered & Mandated Community Service Support
The ACS program supports adult individuals who:
- Need to complete required community service
- Are seeking approved placements
- Require verified service documentation
Please Note: Volunteer Fairfax cannot accept individuals with violent, assault or weapons‑related charges.
Program Fee: ACS requires a one‑time, non‑refundable administrative fee ($130). This fee supports placement coordination, tracking, reporting services and completion documentation. This fee is payable after we review and accept you in our program.
