This is an exciting time to provide care for women in the VA and to be part of a fellowship program for Women’s Health!
Women Veteran enrollment is outpacing that of men. We have seen a 21% increase since 2009. More attention and resources are being directed to the goal of providing excellent health care for the women Veterans that we serve!
The VA has already proven they are a leader in Women’s Health by supporting the 8 different fellowship sites across the country. We are excited to continue development of a national coordinating center or HUB site to provide support and connections in our Women’s Health community.
This interactive website is designed to help share ideas, promote the fellowship and continue to build our Women’s Health VA community. We will also share professional development, research, and potential career opportunities.
Whether you are very familiar with the Advanced Fellowship in Women’s Health or completely new to the program we hope this website will be a way to connect, forge new relationships or collaborations and disseminate information. We welcome your input regarding what the HUB and this website can do for you.
We look forward to hearing from you about how to best meet your needs!
