It’s never too late to enroll in VA health care services. If you’re looking for women-centered health care, sign up for the VA Women’s Health Reengagement Training (heaRT) to gain a better understanding of how VA can support your health care needs.

VA’s Office of Women’s Health (OWH) has pioneered 30 years of health research and programming for women Veterans. Now, OWH is launching a new program – the VA Women’s Health Reengagement Training (heaRT). This program will help you understand what VA health care services are available and how to access them.

She Wears the Boots is an official VA sponsored podcast. They highlight how the VA is your partner in health by interviewing experts on topics that matter to you and recognizing that while women Veterans have the same health care needs as non-Veteran women, Veterans are at a higher risk for certain conditions that may require specialized care. No other health service understands women Veterans and their unique health care needs like VA.

The cover topics that include:

Breast health

Heart health

Infertility

LGBTQ care

Maternity care

Menopause

Mental health

Reproductive health

Supportive services

Vaccine safety

And more!
