In part one of our two-part podcast, Veronika Mudra, Drs. Eddy Fagundo and Bridget Turner join host Dr. Aprille Woodson to discuss the White Ribbon VA campaign, a national call to action to eliminate sexual harassment, sexual assault, and domestic violence across the Department of Veterans Affairs by promoting a positive change in culture so that the actions outlined in the pledge become the organizational norm. White Ribbon VA is an anti-harassment and awareness movement where All—regardless of their gender—can participate.
White Ribbon VA partners (White Ribbon USA, American Counseling Association, and American Psychological Association) discuss the significance of the campaign and resources available to veterans and the public. Other White Ribbon VA partners include the American Psychiatric Association, National Association of Social Workers, American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy, and Veterans Service Organizations.
