With 20+ years of non-profit experience, real estate development experience, experience working with Veterans/VA & Housing Authority, large network in the non-profit and real estate arenas and a long standing passion for the cause, Maria Ferreira formed RVillages; a new nonprofit organization dedicated to helping reduce homelessness by building affordable residential communities for homeless individuals where they feel apart of a supportive and nurturing environment. Communities where they can improve the quality of their lives and live with dignity. RVillages will work with public and private partners to purchase land and "tiny houses" to build residential communities and to provide wrap-around services.
