The VA continues to train healthcare providers on a variety of topics that are relevant to the LGBTQ+ Community.

Coming up on September 17, 2024 will be a training session for all healthcare providers with the VA and non-VA who may have veteran patients. Although this training is specific to healthcare providers the list of topics being discussed is important to us. Specifically showing how healthcare providers can properly conduct pre-op assessments and surgery recommendation letters for transgender veterans.



Then on September 20, the Minneapolis VA will host a virtual Mental Health Summit that is open to all. The focus is on providers who treat transgender veterans, but anyone can register to attend via video link. The link in the image doesn't work (it's just a picture of the flyer), but you should be able to use the QR Code. If that doesn't work, you can also email Molly Smith (email in the bottom-right corner) and she can send you a link so you can attend.

Thanks to those who are serving and who are serving in our military.

Always stay cheerful, be polite, kind, and understanding. Accepting yourself as the woman you are is very liberating.  Never underestimate the appreciation and respect of authenticity.  Help connect a person to someone that may be able to help that person.  Be brave, be strong.  A TRUE friend is a treasure.  Relationships are very important, people are important, and the sooner we all realize that the better off the world will be.  Try a little kindness.  Be generous with your time, energy, wisdom, and resources.   Inconvenience yourself to help someone.   I am a brown eyed, brown haired woman.
