RAISING AWARENESS OF BREAST HEALTH: The Milwaukee VA’s fourth annual Breast Health Awareness Walk on Friday, Oct. 2, drew more than 200 participants for a stroll around Lake Wheeler and through the Milwaukee VA campus. “Today is about more than walking; it’s about learning, connecting with resources and supporting those whose lives have been impacted by breast cancer,” said organizer Amanda Ziegler, mammogram care coordinator. More than 20 organizations had resources tables at the event, and participants could learn about a variety of VA and non-VA resources, ranging from su***de prevention, intimate partner violence and survivorship programs to surgical care and oncology services. “A diagnosis of breast cancer can suddenly make life very complicated,” said radiation oncologist Dr. Adam Currey. “Our goal at the VA is to make sure that no Veteran has to navigate this journey alone.” Currey noted that the Milwaukee VA has state-of-the-art equipment and the latest medications for treating breast cancer as well as a team of dedicated coordinators who work with patients every step of the way. “So today, as we walk, let’s celebrate the survivors, remember those we have lost and support those who are going through treatment right now.”

NEW HOME FOR WOMEN’S RESOURCE CENTER: During a brief ceremony Monday, the ribbon was cut for the new Women’s Resource Center at the Milwaukee VA. The new space, in Building 123, provides more room for the mental health services provided by the center. “This center represents integrated, gender-specific, trauma-informed care in a place designed for women Veterans by people who understand what that care requires,” said Milwaukee VA Associate Director Laurie Vail, noting there is a separate entrance, designated parking and a private waiting area. “To our Veterans, this center is a continuation of our promise: You will always have a place here built specifically for you.” The Women’s Resource Center was previously located in a small house east of the medical center. That structure will be razed to make way for a new chilling plant for the medical center.
