   RECOGNIZING THE VA NORTHERN INDIANA WOMEN'S VETERAN HEALTH CLINIC

                                 ______
                                 

                             HON. JIM BANKS

                    in the house of representatives

                          Monday, May 17, 2021

  Mr. BANKS. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize the VA Northern 
Indiana Women's Veteran Health Clinic for their service to women 
veterans in our community.
  The VA Northern Indiana Health Care System is committed to providing 
high-quality services in a sensitive and safe environment. In the 
clinic, each woman veteran is assigned a Women's Health Primary Care 
Provider; each provider is trained to deliver comprehensive primary 
care in any number of programs.
  With 3,383 women veterans currently enrolled in the VA Northern 
Indiana Health Care System, the clinic provides maternity care 
programs, general health and wellness programs, baby shower 
preparation, sexual trauma services and more.
  As a veteran myself and member of the House Veterans' Affairs 
Committee in Congress, I am honored to have served in uniform and to 
serve the people of northeast Indiana in Congress. One of my top 
priorities has been, and always will be, ensuring those who served the 
United States receive the honor, opportunity and care they deserve.
  This is a testament to the honor and sacrifice of those heroes who 
have served our country, and to those who serve them.

                          ____________________
