Welcome to Veterans for Veterans, where we are working to erase the epidemic of homeless women veterans in the United States. Did you know that as many as 25,000 women veterans live on our streets today, many with children? While we see images and testimonials from many charities, this sobering statistic is little-known. Our female trailblazers and heroes have become our forgotten veterans.
WHY ARE SO MANY WOMEN VETERANS HOMELESS?
Trauma, divorce, job loss, rising housing costs - or just trying and failing to navigate the maze of requirements and forms to qualify for assistance - are just some of the causes of this unacceptable mountain of homelessness.
