Please forward this information to your member libraries.
Thanks. More info is in the attached document.
In 2008, the Commission on the Status of Women and
then-Assembly member Lois Wolk asked the California State Library through its
California Research Bureau (CRB) to administer a survey to California women
veterans. This survey led to “California’s Women Veterans: The Challenges and
Needs of Those Who Served,” a 2009 report that provided insight to state
legislators on the service barriers to California women veterans.
The Commission and California Department of Veterans Affairs
is now requesting that CRB assist them in assessing the progress that has been
made since the earlier survey, as well as identifying new needs.
How libraries can help:
- print out and post the attached flyers or make copies
available
- forward this information to community organizations that
assist veterans
- if possible, put the link to the survey on their website
thru 12/31/11
The survey is online at :
A printable copy of the full survey is available at:
