What is National Vet Girls Rise Day?
National Vet Girls RISE Day, February 19th, honors the countless sacrifice of the nearly 2 million U.S. veteran women.
Not only is it a day to honor women veterans, but it is also a day for women veterans to help one another, share information, strengthen partnerships, and raise concerns about the needs of women veterans.
Women have served in the military forces since the Revolutionary War, and many have not been recognized for their service. The contributions of nearly 2 million women veterans are deserving of recognition today. The day honors the friendships they established and their experiences with military service.
Both their professional and personal success are enhanced by thousands of military service members, who are transitioning from military to civilian life. Honoring their achievements, skills, and contributions both in the military and civilian industries has elevated the woman veteran's position to her proper position.
