Ensuring Accessibility for All Veterans

The LGBTQ+ program continues to take an in-depth approach to enhancing our targeted outreach efforts. It is imperative for our program to ensure accessibility for veterans who identify as gender and sexually diverse, while also addressing key health concerns.   

A First! VA’s New Diversity PACT Team for Southern Nevada  

The VA Hospital in North Las Vegas has recently implemented a pioneering Diversity PACT focused on enhancing care for LGBTQ+ veterans, marking a first within the VA healthcare system. This initiative aims to streamline healthcare services for this population by providing a dedicated team of healthcare professionals to ensure continuity of care. Christopher Miannay, our Southern Nevada Outreach Director, is partnering with this team to ensure the healthcare needs and benefits of LGBTQ+ veterans are met. The Diversity PACT has successfully enrolled its initial clients into the program.
