Our Challenge
At Northeast Florida Women Veterans , we recognize that many women veterans transition well and go on to be very successful in their lives. There are also women veterans who have not handled transition well or things have happened beyond their control and now find themselves needing a little help. Our staff is dedicated to help meet those needs. Women are the fastest-growing community of military veterans. As veterans, we are subject to the same challenges as our male counterparts: PTSD, MST, high divorce rate, health issues, and even homelessness. The challenges for women, goes beyond that. Often childcare, domestic violence, gender discrimination, and other issues, push our needs beyond the normal transition challenges. Only in recent years have the VA placed more emphasis on the unique needs of women who served. Only recently has community agencies began to look at services needed for this demographics. We are working daily with community partners to ensure that women veterans are no longer the “Invisible veterans.”
Our Charge
Here in Florida, we serve the second-largest population of women veterans in America, with Duval County as the largest in the state of Florida. We sincerely believe in our Core Mission to help set the standard for providing personalized care and emergency resources to the women who have served and continue to serve our country.
TAKE ACTION
Help Us Build a Permanent Home for Women Veterans
At Northeast Florida Women Veterans, our mission is to ensure that women who served in the U.S. military, and their families, have the resources and support they need to thrive after service.
For over a decade, we’ve been honored to walk alongside women veterans, providing programs that focus on body, mind, and economic empowerment . From mental health counseling and financial assistance to food and toiletries pantry services, case management, and family support, our goal has always been to meet the unique needs of women who served.
Now, we are at a turning point. Our current lease ends in December 2025, and we need a permanent home; one that is ADA-compliant, provides confidential spaces for counseling, and has room for our pantry and offices. We’ve found a building that fits these needs perfectly, but we can only make it ours with your help.
Every dollar brings us closer to a place that women veterans can call their own, a place built on dignity, compassion, and community.
Be part of this incredible journey. Together, we can create a permanent home that will empower women veterans across Florida for generations to come.
