The Finnish Programme to Reduce Long-Term Homelessness >

N G O

Vailla vakinaista asuntoa ry No Fixed Abode NGO (Vva) was founded by homeless themselves in 1986.
The aim of Vva is to improve living conditions of the homeless: a chance to live independently belongs to everyone.
Homelessness should be considered as a lack of human rights.
Vva is funded by RAY, Finland’s Slot Machine Association.
