Driving Change for Women Veterans

Women Veterans bring strength, resilience, and leadership to every space they enter, yet they often face challenges that are unseen and underserved. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, the Women Veterans Interactive Foundation (WVIF) exists to change that. Our members, community chapters, and growing ecosystem of corporate partners create a powerful network of support and opportunity, ensuring post-military success for today’s Women Veterans.

Real-World Situation

The State of Women Veterans in the U.S.

Currently, there are over 2 million Women Veterans in the United States. They are the fastest-growing group of Veterans, and by 2040, the population of Women Veterans is expected to nearly double.

Vast amounts of research document the unique challenges that Women Veterans face. In many cases, Women Veterans encounter challenges at a higher rate than male Veterans or than nonveteran women. WVIF exists to deliver comprehensive support and empowerment to Women Veterans, preventing difficulties from becoming worse and driving post-military success.

Women Veterans are the fastest-growing group of homeless Veterans. They are 2x more likely than civilian women to experience homelessness.

Women Veterans are more likely than male Veterans to be homeless with children.

25% of Women Veterans report experiencing Military Sexual Trauma (MST).

25% of Women Veterans have been diagnosed with depression.

20% of Women Veterans have experienced PTSD.

Women Veterans are 1.8x more likely than civilian women to commit suicide. For free, confidential help: Dial 988 and Press 1.

Serving Women Veterans

What We Do

WVIF’s programs and initiatives are designed to meet the full spectrum of Women Veterans’ needs. With a multidimensional approach, we combine direct outreach, dynamic programs and events, and ongoing research to create real solutions for real lives.
Our approach is built on a 3-pillar framework: Wellness, Safety, and Transition. As no single factor leads to lasting success, WVIF integrates multiple pillars into each initiative. This ensures that Women Veterans receive comprehensive, holistic services that address all dimensions of their post-military experience.

Wellness

To strengthen mental and physical health.

Safety

To deliver emergency relief in times of crisis.

Transition

To educate, equip, and empower toward post-military success.

In Her Own Words

Testimonials

About Us

How it All Began

After a medical discharge from the Navy, our founder, Ginger Miller, faced a battle she never expected. Her family slipped into homelessness, and she learned quickly that support for Women Veterans was nearly impossible to find. There was no hotline, no emergency fund, no safety net made with Women Veterans in mind. So she became one. What started as helping homeless veterans in her community grew into a mission centered on women veterans who were falling through every crack. That commitment became the Women Veterans Interactive Foundation, a national 501(c)(3) that connects, engages, and empowers Women Veterans across the country.
