SUMMARY:National Women Veterans Summit 2017
DESCRIPTION:UPDATED: 2017 National Women Veterans Summit re-scheduled for April 21-22 in Dallas\, Texas\n  \nThe Summit was rescheduled from March to April in order to accommodate more women Veterans.  \n  \nWomen Veterans account for approximately 10 percent of the U.S. Veteran population\, which will grow to 15 percent by 2030. While many of their challenges and opportunities are similar to those of their male counterparts\, some are unique or disproportionate to the women Veterans population—which is younger and more ethnically diverse than their male peers.   It is for this reason that VA is planning a national platform to discuss these issues—the 2017 National Women Veterans Summit. \nThe 2017 summit will focus on the needs and issues important to women Veterans and provide training\, information and guidance to assist women Veterans—and those who serve them—with navigating through VA and community resources. \nThis event\, the first national-level women Veterans summit since 2011\, will bring together key stakeholders from across a variety of sectors\, to identify challenges and opportunities facing women Veterans and collaborate on identifying and diffusing best practices in serving them. It is designed to promote forward-thinking dialogue and innovative collaboration among private industry\, nonprofit organizations\, the federal government\, innovators\, researchers\, caregivers\, and women Veterans. \nThe target audience for the summit includes women Veterans; public sector partners\, including military\, federal\, state\, and local agencies; Veterans service organizations and other nonprofit partners; academics and others in the research community; representatives from the tech industry and corporations; other community partners; and VA employees\, including women Veteran program managers and women Veteran coordinators. The summit will consist of lectures\, discussion panels\, an exhibit hall and an open forum. Discussion by all attendees will be encouraged throughout the event. \nAttendees will have an opportunity to hear from VA leadership\, and participate in breakout sessions focused on employment\, mental health\, entrepreneurship\, military sexual trauma\, reproductive health\, culture change and more. Additionally\, plenary sessions will focus on VA care and benefits\, partner organizations\, and a special “Voice of the Veteran” panel.  The event will also feature a women Veterans art exhibit\, a display of artwork by select women Veteran artists from across the United States. \nThe event is tentatively scheduled for April 21 through April 22 in Dallas\, Texas. These dates and a location will be confirmed soon. Please check out the Center for Women Veterans website for updates and registration information. We hope to see you there.
