SOCW 661 - Women in the Military Services

3 Credits
The historical roles of women in combat and the changing legal and cultural contexts for women’s military service present challenges and opportunities for the health and wellbeing of women and their families. This course examines the particular health and mental health issues experienced by servicewomen such as hostile military environments, military sexual assault, barriers to family and community reintegration, and limited access to appropriate health care. Particular attention is paid to best practices in promoting recovery and resilience among military women, including community outreach, community-based treatment, advocacy and care coordination, and family and peer support.
