The building of a transformative program
Shamwari Village will be a 60-acre master planned community that provides long-term temporary housing and a supportive network of resources for veteran women coming out of chronic homelessness. This transformative residential program exists to honor and serve these women who have served our country and who now deserve life-changing medical, physical, and spiritual support to empower them to live independent lives as mothers, daughters, friends, and employees. Shamwari will also provide long-term temporary housing for young women tormented by anxiety disorders with co-existing addiction challenges. Our program will provide dual diagnostic services that serve these women holistically so that they can find their feet and become productive members of society in the workplace and in their personal lives. All these women deserve to have their dignity, self-respect and independence back intact.
