Survey seeks input from NYS Women Veterans

The New York State Department of Veterans’ Services (DVS), in partnership with the New York State Women Veterans Advisory Committee, is spotlighting a statewide survey to gather feedback from women veterans about the services and support they need most.

The short, confidential survey is available at https://forms.office.com/g/firLyyAz09, takes less than two minutes to complete, and addresses key areas including healthcare, mental health, childcare, employment, and education. Responses will directly inform future policy decisions and program development across New York State. The survey is also accessible by scanning the QR code. The survey will be available through the remainder of 2025.

“We are committed to listening to women who served – and ensuring their voices lead the way,” New York State Department of Veterans’ Services Commissioner Viviana M. DeCohen said. “Their experiences matter and this survey will help us better align our services with their important needs.”

New York State Women Veterans Advisory Committee Chairwoman Dr. Nneka Bell said, “Women Veterans have unique stories, strengths, and struggles that too often go unheard. This survey is not just a chance to be counted — it’s a chance to be understood. The insights we gain will drive real, responsive change across New York State, ensuring that every woman veteran receives the care, recognition, and respect she deserves.”

The New York State Women Veterans Advisory Committee is committed to advocating for the needs of Women Veterans statewide and provides guidance to DVS in developing and enacting policies and programs to best serve the Empire State’s Women Veterans.
