Women Veterans Program

A space built for women veterans, by people who understand what you carried home.

You've been overlooked. At community events, people thank your spouse for serving. At the VA, care has historically been designed for men. Strangers make assumptions about what role you played - administrative, support, anything but combat or command. Colonial PVA built this program because you deserve a space where your service is acknowledged, your experiences are understood, and your voice leads the conversation.

This program is open to any woman veteran. A spinal cord injury or disorder is not required to join, and you do not need to be a PVA member to attend.

How the Women Veterans Program Works

You deserve to be seen, heard, and acknowledged for the service you gave.

Monthly Virtual Meetings

On the first Tuesday of each month at 7:00pm Eastern, you gather on Zoom with women veterans from across the country to talk, share experiences, and connect with guest speakers covering topics relevant to your life and service. Chaired by Betty Geer and co-chaired by Kathleen Fitzpatrick.

From Advocacy to Action

When women get together, talk, and push for change, things move. Members of this program have advocated for dedicated women's clinics and outsourced care options at VA facilities — proof that being heard leads somewhere.

Peer Connection

You'll find resources, support through VA benefits navigation, and relationships that extend well beyond the monthly call.
