Forum on Women Veterans
On July 28, 2010, The Secretary of Veterans Affairs hosted “A Forum on Women Veterans,” at the Women’s Memorial at Arlington National Cemetery. The purpose of the Forum was to engage and educate Veterans service organizations and women Veteran advocates about enhancements in VA services for women Veterans. An information marketplace, staffed by internal and external subject matter experts, allowed participants to build toolkits customized for their respective constituents at the local and regional levels.
