OC Women Veterans Network Summit.
This week, we joined the Veterans Resource Center to host a community Summit, sponsored by the Employees Community Fund of Boeing California. The Summit engaged organizations working with veterans in Orange County in order to study the needs of women veterans returning home from service. The day included two main questions: What are the needs of women veterans? What gaps are there in services for women veterans?
Are you interested in joining us as we continue learning about the needs of women veterans in OC? Email us to get involved!
