Organization of Human Services at Villanova

Learning by Experience to Create a Brighter Tomorrow

What is OHS?  The purpose of OHS, Organization of Human Services, is to experience and gain knowledge of different areas within the Human Service field.  In doing so, you will have fun and learn a lot about yourself as you reach out to the Villanova Community and beyond!  

  • OHS is tailored to meet the interests of Human Service, Sociology, and Psychology majors and minors.  However, we welcome all who are interested in the Human Service field.
  • OHS is a perfect opportunity to get involved on campus and in our community, feel great about yourself and meet other students who share the same interests and values.
     
  • OHS is a young organization working hard to become more prominent within the Villanova Community-and we are getting there fast. You can be a part of our adventure!
