U.S. ARMY

The U.S. Army is made up of the most dedicated, most respected soldiers in the world. These soldiers protect America's Freedoms while serving at home and abroad, and they are always prepared to defend the nation in times of need.

U.S. MARINES

We are soldiers of the sea, providing forces and detachments to naval ships and shore operations. We are global leaders, developing expeditionary doctrine and innovations that set the example, and leading other countries' forces and agencies in the multinational military operations. These unique capabilities make us "First to Fight", and our nations first line of defense.

U.S. NAVY

America's Navy is a force as relevant today as it's been historically significan for the last 238 years. The times may change, the threats may become more obscure, the complex nature of 21st century life may make the demand for such presence less obvious. However, now more than ever, the Navy is something to be aware of Something to be thankful for. Something to be proud of.

I am inviting you to the upcoming Louisiana Women Veterans Health Care Symposium. Our nation’s heroes are not just men. Many women serve in our Armed Forces too. Like men, they are entitled to the benefits they have earned through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, and one of those benefits is health care.

Women veterans have health care needs that are very different than men, and the federal VA has made great strides in providing that care; however, many women veterans are hesitant to receive it. For this reason, the Louisiana Department of Veterans Affairs will host the Louisiana Women Veterans Health Care Symposium virtually on Friday, March 26, 2021 at 9 a.m. The purpose of the symposium is to ensure that Louisiana women veterans are aware of and receive care if they need it. LDVA staff and symposium panelists will provide information about health care locations, enrollment assistance and current care programs. Additionally, women veterans support groups across the state will be highlighted. Registration link can be found at the end of this correspondence.

 The symposium is free of charge. Women veterans can register for the event at https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_m_KGqSo3QVm1d3mtd5jLVQ
