Women Veterans represent approximately 8.5% of all veterans, with the numbers expected to rise as more women return from Afghanistan and Iraq. However, Women Veterans are also are more times likely to become homeless than their civilian counterparts,
Homeless Women Veterans and Veterans with Families share many of the same challenges as other veterans served by HVRPs, but have additional burdens such as finding child care or a shelter that will accept their children as well as themselves.
