The Federation is still active today.

FEDEVIVIENDA


José was employed in the initial stages of the Federation to get it off the ground, when members were being sought and funding was being secured. By 1982, when he left, the Federation was well established and funded, with member organisations all over the Country and a number of funding agreements established with Dutch funding organisations.
