Veterans are at higher risk for suicide than civilians. And the rate for women veterans has risen more sharply than that for their male counterparts. It jumped more than 20% between 2020 and 2021. A new report highlights recommendations for supporting women veterans' mental health and preventing suicide through gender-tailored care.

It’s great to see the VA making progress in addressing the mental health needs of women veterans, especially with more focus on military sexual trauma and the impact of reproductive health on PTSD. While there's still work to do, the recent improvements in outreach and care options give us hope that more women veterans will receive the tailored support they need.
It's heartwarming to know that veterans like Ginger MacCutcheon found healing, and her legacy continues to drive positive change.
I’m looking forward to hearing more positive updates and seeing even better progress!
