Be the change with VA during Breast Cancer Awareness Month
Breast Cancer Awareness Month, held in October every year, aims to promote screening and prevention of the disease, which affects 1 in 8 women in the United States every year and 2.3 million women worldwide. As we recognize Breast Cancer Awareness Month and reflect on the many Veterans and family members we have known who battled this terrible disease, we can also embrace the successes we’ve seen in our VA community as we look to the future of breast cancer care and treatment.
Recognize World Mental Health Day with VA professionals
World Mental Health Day is recognized annually on Oct. 10 to raise awareness of global mental health issues and encourage efforts to support the people experiencing them.
Our goal in providing mental health care at VA is to empower Veterans to take charge of their well-being and pursue fuller lives. We support this mission by ensuring that our mental health professionals have the newest technologies, facilities, and training at their fingertips.
