Haylee Horn, Chief of Staff & Administrative Projects at Veterans Outreach Center (VOC)

Haylee joined VOC in 2021 after receiving her bachelor’s degree in Linguistics from the University of Rochester. As a student, she spent much of her free time working with nonprofit and community service organizations on campus, and after graduating she chose to continue her nonprofit work with Veterans Outreach Center. Haylee has served in multiple roles within the agency in her time there and is currently pursuing a master's degree in public administration from SUNY Brockport with a concentration in nonprofit management. As the niece, granddaughter, and great-granddaughter of Navy, Airforce, and Army veterans, Haylee is always excited to support VOC’s mission of serving those who serve U.S.  

Veterans Outreach Center (447 South Ave.) started in 1973 by returning Vietnam Veterans, today’s Veterans Outreach Center remains anchored in our community and offers a comprehensive portfolio of supportive services designed to meet the needs of veterans and their families.
