During the town hall learn how the PACT Act offers toxic exposure screenings for all Veterans who were exposed to burn pits and other toxins. A variety of reproductive health concerns are now considered presumptive health conditions including ovarian, uterine, cervical and breast cancers. 

Women are the fastest growing Veteran group at VA and today, women make up about 30% of all new VA patients. 60% of VA employees are women, and of that 60%, over a third, are Veterans. VA benefits include personalized, comprehensive health care such as routine check-ups, cancer screenings, birth control, mammograms, maternity care, and more. VA also offers mental health care tailored to women Veterans.
