AWTR Show #943: Women’s Health Update

by | Nov 28, 2022

Today on Army Wife Talk Radio it’s a Military Women’s Health Update. We have the rare opportunity to get a glimpse into the inner workings of the Department of Health Affairs with the current Acting Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs, Ms. Seileen Mullen. 

On today’s episode, Ms. Mullen shares the latest about military women’s health and contraception (for both military members and milspouses), mental health services, and how to prepare for the winter flu, RSV, and COVID season. Check out tricare.mil and health.mil for the latest information about viruses and vaccines. Ms. Mullen has got our six. Her passion for advocating for women’s health and autonomy is truly empowering! A big thanks to Ms. Seileen Mullen.

In today’s Milspouse Empowerment Moment, KateLynn helps us find our footing in a joint service world. Whether or not you are on a Joint Service Installation now or may be PCSing to one in the future, tune in for our empowering and informative message.
