Empowering Women Veterans
Since 2015, Dixon Center, through our Women Veterans Program, has recognized the unique challenges that women veterans face after reintegrating back into their communities and the need to rapidly address crisis situations. Providing women veterans, a “hand-up” became even more important, as Dixon Center encountered an unprecedented number of women veterans seeking assistance during the economic uncertainty of the past year. In 2022, Dixon Center assisted 128 women veterans. This assistance included resource sharing and referrals to organizations that provide budget training, and case management.
