Consultation with female veterans and veterans' families
The Female Veterans and Veterans' Families Forum provides a platform for female veterans and veterans' families to generate ideas to solve issues facing their communities, co-design DVA products and services, and build networks across represented cohorts.
The inaugural Female Veterans and Veterans' Families Policy Forum (the Forum) was held in 2016. Subsequent Forums were conducted on 10 and 11 October 2017, 11 and 12 September 2018, and 14 and 15 August 2019. Virtual engagements continued through 2020 and 2021 to remain connected to the community and gather feedback during COVID-19.
The Forum is attended by female veterans, veterans' family members and other representatives from the veteran community.
