About Us


Health Volunteers Overseas improves the availability and quality of health care through the education, training and professional development of health workers in resource-scarce countries. HVO envisions a world where all people have access to high quality health care delivered by local health professionals, fostering partnerships between institutions, local providers, volunteers and sponsor organizations, so that, together, we can address the global health workforce shortage. A DC-based nonprofit founded in 1986, HVO recruits trained physicians, nurses, dentists, and allied health professionals to support their colleagues overseas through education, mentorship and inter-professional collaboration.
