Women Veterans

BPW Foundation, Joining Forces for Women Veterans
Women Veterans in Transition Research Project

This Public Service Announcment (PSA) by the Veterans Administration challenges us to change how we think about our veterans and not to forget the number of women who are serving and have served in the most dangerous situations.  The PSA is part of a nationwide campaign to educate the public about women’s roles in war and to recognize that more than ever, female veterans are seeing combat and, like their male counterparts, are paying the price.

Every day, women in the military proudly serve our country, but when they return home they often do not receive the recognition, benefits, or services they have earned. Learn what women veterans need and join us in seeking solutions.  Watch a webcast or check out our YouTube video Women Veterans: Listen to Their Voices.  Read our statement about the White House’s “Joining Forces” campaign.

Business and Professional Women are Joining Forces for Women Veterans across the country.  We are working to provide support and resources to women veterans and their families as they return to their civilian lives, including providing mentorships to 10,000 women vets and military spouses by the end of 2012. Learn about our Advisory Council.

Whether you served fifty years ago or fifty days ago, remember: You’re not alone.
