A Profile of Women Veterans Today. Rethink Veterans: Who is the Woman Veteran?/April 2012 (Department of Veterans Affairs)

Category: Demographics

The Department of Veterans Affairs Women Veterans Health Strategic Health Care Group's profile of women veterans includes demographic facts and a synopsis of the health care women veterans can expect at VA health care facilities.  It also briefly notes other benefits women veterans may be eligible for.  It states:

"A campaign is under way across the VA system to enhance the language, practice and culture of VA to be more inclusive of women. VA has taken this culture change message public with a PSA and materials like this, encouraging everyone to rethink the term Veteran, recognize the vital role of women in the military, and appreciate what it means to be a female Veteran."
