The purpose of the Advocacy Program is to empower, honor and provide support to Combat Female Veterans.
The CFVF United team seizes opportunities to promote justice and supportive legislation by advocating for the needs of Combat Female Veterans and their families- at the local, state, and national levels.
We honor Combat Female Veterans through the collection, preservation, and telling of their stories.
Established 2019, Annual Outstanding Combat Female Veterans of North Carolina Award- To honor and celebrate their service. Created exclusively for NC Combat Female Veterans.
Shero Peer Support Groups
Our groups include military sexual trauma (MST) support but that is the entire focus. Participants have requested topics and activities to include mediation, social anxiety, stress, family problems and information sharing e.g., benefits. The groups take place once a month and last anywhere from 1-2 hours. Exception- no groups in January, June, July & December. No two groups will ever be the same.
All groups are FREE to any female veteran regardless of a history of MST.
Participates receive a variety of digital activity and support items throughout
the year. We will supply electronic devices free of charge to participants in need based on availability at the time of request.
You are not alone. Shero Peer Support Groups bring female veterans together to
discuss their life experiences and offer each other support.
Deployed Combat Female Veterans
We engage both Combat Female Veterans, as well as deployed Combat Females preparing for their return home, with the intent of easing their transition to civilian life. For many women, given the toll of deployment to their families, transition periods last many years – sometimes a lifetime. CFVF United actively builds relationships with deployed female service members stationed in combat zones.There is no greater courage than the valor demonstrated by a service member deployed during wartime. As our female service members are deployed during wartime. We strive to show them gratitude by sending them letters of support and care packages made with love.
