Its coverages range from topics such as transportation, the environment, social justice, health, public safety, housing, homelessness, politics, to the Ralph M. Brown Act and California Public Records Act issues.
Funding for the Voice of OC is primarily provided through member contributions and grants.
Voice of OC was founded by former Orange County Register investigative reporter Norberto Santana in June 2009 with an initial annual budget of $600,000. The agency's board of directors was then chaired by Joe Dunn, a former Democratic state senator from Santa Ana, CA.
It started publishing March 31, 2010. Through its first 4 years, its reporters have written 3,500 news stories.
In 2014, the website entered content-sharing partnership with the Orange County Register.
In 2015, Norberto Santana moved from being an editor-in-chief to being the publisher.
In November 2022, Google selected the Voice of OC as one of its 450 news organizations that will receive funding for Google News Equity Fund, which focuses on small and medium-sized, independent news organizations focusing on underserved audiences.
