Formed in 2011 by a group of female veterans, The Northeast Florida Women Veterans, Inc. provides support to women who served on active duty and in the Reserves and National Guard. THE CHALLENGE We recognize that many women veterans are able to transition easily and go on to be very successful in their lives. Some women veterans have not handled the transition well or things have happened beyond their control, and they find themselves needing assistance. Our staff is dedicated to helping 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 go beyond that. Often childcare, domestic violence, gender discrimination, and other issues, push our needs beyond the normal transition challenges. Only in recent years has the VA placed more emphasis on the unique needs of women veterans. Community agencies have also begun to look at services needed for this demographic. We are working daily with community partners to ensure that women who served in the military 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 having the largest number 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. If you are a woman who served in the military, in any branch or component (Active Duty, National Guard, or Reserves), connect with us today!

You can also follow us on other social media platforms by looking up our name on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube.
