Thu. 9/19 11a: Veterans who serve in the United States Armed Forces are entitled to health care both during and after their service. Native American veterans are in a unique situation. They can access health care from both the Indian Health Service (IHS) and the US Department of Veterans Affairs.

What are the major health concerns right now for Native veterans? Where are Native veterans going for services and are their needs being met? Do you or a family member have a story to tell about accessing health care as a veteran?
