Sisters in Arms Center (formerly the Betsy Ann Ross House of Hope) is a 501(c)3 non-profit that provides a safe haven for women veterans experiencing homelessness. They provide temporary housing to female veterans in their time of need and assist them in becoming self-sufficient. The organization does not receive government funding, relying instead on the generosity of supporters and local initiatives through community donations, grants, and fundraising events.
