On any given day, there are approximately 50,000 homeless women Veterans living on the streets across the United States.
Unlike homeless male Veterans, many of these women have children in tow. The Government Accountability Office reports that 60 percent of VA Grant and Per Diem housing assistance providers serving homeless female Veterans do not house children.
Of the few shelters that do accept children, restrictions related to age, number of children, or gender often serve as barriers for mothers who do not want to be separated from their families.
CCA has taken on the challenge of creating more appropriate housing options. To that end, CCA is nearing completion of the renovation of a two-flat greystone property that will provide both transitional and permanent housing for female Veterans with children.

Help us house two female Veterans and their children. We need to raise $4,500 for the purchase and installation of kitchen cabinets and a few other essential items.
