b'This week my guest is Aryanna Wagner. She is a trainer for the VA Women\\u2019s Health Reengagement Training known as VA Women\\u2019s HeaRT, she is also an Army veteran, mom, and PhD candidate. In today\\u2019s episode we will learn more about how Aryanna\\u2019s experience with VA Women\\u2019s HeaRT and answer questions about the training program. VA Women\\u2019s HeaRT is an official program of the VA Office of Women\\u2019s Health and is working to increase the number of women veterans who use VA health care by educating them on what women veteran specific services are available to them and how to enroll. I recently took this course and learned about the health services provided by VA along with specific services offered for women. Did you know only 44% of women veterans are currently enrolled in VA health services which is 8% lower than their male counterparts? This program is working to change that number and help get women veterans enrolled.'
