About

VA SERVES ALL WHO SERVED!

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) welcomes all Veterans, families, caregivers, and survivor beneficiaries, including diverse gender identities and sexual orientations. We recognize that LGBTQ+ Veterans face increased health risks and unique challenges in health care. In addition to other health care services, VA Pittsburgh offers care including gender-affirming hormone therapy, LGBTQ+ support groups, gender-affirming prosthetics, speech therapy, support letters, mental health services, and pre and post-operative services. VA Pittsburgh has a robust Interdisciplinary Transgender Treatment Team who provide gender-affirming care to Veterans and consultative services.

Every VA facility has at least one LGBTQ+ Veteran Care Coordinator who can help Veterans get started with services, answer questions and assist in navigating the system, and handle complaints or concerns they have about their care.
