Women Veterans are encouraged to attend the Women Veterans Forum to connect and discuss the needs of Washington State Women Veterans in your region and how we can provide equitable access and support through continuous outreach and engagement. The WVAC is made up of 14 members and strives to ensure that Washington's women veterans have equitable access to federal and state veterans' services and benefits. The WVAC is excited to join the VAAC by holding this "she served" forum prior to the Town Hall. Women Veterans are encouraged to RSVP at: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/she-served-women-veterans-forum-tickets-668351576557?aff=oddtdtcreator
During the Veterans Town Hall, community partners and service providers will share how they are serving veterans and their families from the area. Veterans, families, and service providers are invited to attend and learn about programs and services available to them.
The VAAC is composed of 17 members and advises the Governor and the director of the Washington State Department of Veterans Affairs (WDVA) on issues and programs concerning veterans.
