    Veterans’ needs in 2022

    When: Tuesday, February 22, 2022, 1:00 - 2:15 p.m. EST

    What: While the United States has withdrawn from Afghanistan and ended most military operations in Iraq, the effects of war on wounded, ill, and injured veterans can last a lifetime. On February 22, Wounded Warrior Project® (WWP) and the Brookings Institution will take a deeper look into the issues by discussing the findings of WWP’s 12th Annual Warrior Survey. Moderated by Senior Fellow Michael O’Hanlon, the panel will discuss veterans’ mental health, access to care, toxic exposures in the military, unique challenges for women veterans, veterans’ financial security, and more

    The Annual Warrior Survey report is the largest, most comprehensive survey of post-9/11 wounded veterans, representing more than 150,000 veterans registered with WWP. The survey tracks the mental, physical, and financial health of WWP veterans, and its findings help policymakers, veterans service organizations, and the health care community support the needs of wounded veterans across the country.

    Viewers can submit questions via email to events@brookings.edu or on Twitter using #Veterans.
