The tax preparation training is free. No prior tax experience is needed. Last year we returned over 8.5 million in tax refunds to over 5,400 taxpayers through the power of volunteers! We cannot do it again this season without you!

We serve as the largest partner of the Boston Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) Coalition to provide free electronic tax preparation through the IRS Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program.
