Calling "Women Veteran Influencers"! You served the nation, you currently serve the veteran community and this conference is for you...
About this Event

Zahara Veterans Network, Inc. was established for women veterans and after more than three years of hosting monthly events specifically for them we are excited to announce a first of its kind national conference for the influencers of the woman veteran community to connect to one another.

Veterans Service Agencies across the nation are invited to send their woman veteran representative(s) for a weekend that raises awareness on the issues most prevalent to the woman veteran community and participate in dialogue to create a plan of action to assist each other.

The weekend is designed as a two day event that: first provides for self-care, which women veterans often neglect in their mission to support others and secondly focuses attention to the state of women veterans and the mission to adequately assess and address their needs.

The woman veteran community has one of the most under-participation rates by members of its own group when compared to other demographics. The silence of women veterans has become one of the major contributors to the consistent increase in the homelessness and suicide rates of the community. Our own lack of participation has delayed the development of programs that adequately address our needs.

Today, there are a handful of women veterans working diligently in communities across the nation to serve veterans and specifically assist women veterans. We are often overworked, under-supported and severely underfunded. ZVN, Inc. recognizes this gap in participation and has created the "Ultimate Women Veterans Weekend" conference to support those who continue to serve the woman veteran community in spite of the difficult circumstances.

Attendees will receive the tentative two day schedule and hotel registration code upon confirmation.

All interested sponsors are invited to send an email to [email protected] to request more information on the conference and private retreat for women veterans impacted by military sexual trauma and post traumatic stress disorder.

Sales solicitations will not be accepted.
