WOVIN: Women Veterans Initiative
WOVIN & You
Founded by women veterans, WOVIN educates, advocates, and increases public awareness of the rising numbers of the increasing number of at-risk, homeless and under-served women veterans, and to help those women seeking information to help themselves and their families.
Women Veteran Challenges
Many female veterans don't regard themselves as veterans as they did not feel integrated into the armed forces or did not serve in active war zones. As such, it takes some convincing to explain that if they served, they are a veteran.
Need for WOVIN
Women veterans are the fastest growing homeless population with a quarter having children. Their challenges are often overwhelming and complex. Due to their military experiences, some female veterans distrust military channels so they avoid turning to the VA or other military support services. WOVIN exists in part to bridge the trust gap and assist women in obtaining services they deserve.
Core Services
All female veterans receive our core services, which are tailored to meet the specific needs of women which often differs from those of their male counterparts.
