THE FIGHT FOR EQUITABLE HOUSING

For many years now, NIVAS has been helping women living in vulnerable situations to take back their story and make it their own. With our efforts combined, we've been able to end homelessness for 249 children and their parents. 👏

This year as we venture into two new districts where single mothers have been experiencing extreme racial and gender discrimination on top of recurrent natural disasters, we're asking women and men to come together to help us expand our reach to build new homes for more women-led families and provide them training and business seed capital for a sustainable future.

Our ReCover program starts by searching out women and their children living in the shadows, without housing, and without access to loans and other resources to build their own home. We then commit to being her right-hand woman, standing by her as she navigates through procuring land, and finding the materials and volunteer labor that she can contribute. From there it's on to construction training and into building her home together. Once safely sheltered, we begin helping her develop a viable and context-relevant home business.

All along the way, the women in our program find their voice and establish a stronger place in their community. By the end everyone can see the true person inside: a woman, a mother, a thinker, a doer, a homeowner.

Give now and your donation will be doubled by our generous sponsors.
