Thank you for that question.
I might ask some of my colleagues to join in the answer.
I would start off by saying that we are making sure we have a good understanding of the data and the actual experience of individuals. Our community health needs assessment will go a long way in helping us to refine our understanding of the unique and different challenges individuals may have throughout their life courses and, in particular, in helping them access benefits and services from the department.
With a GBA+ review and the GBA+ policy, we're systematically going through all our current policies to ensure that they have the right lens approach and that there are no unintentional biases or inadvertent obstacles built into them. As well, on the service delivery side, it's looking through all the operational tools. I mentioned the table of disabilities and the entitlement eligibility guidelines. It is looking at each one of those to ensure they represent the impact or the experience of gender diversity.
I think there are a lot of ways we are approaching how to improve our benefits and services, and the delivery of those benefits and services. In summary, I'd say it's about understanding the data and the actual experience, and about listening to the stories of lived experience from individuals such as those who have been part of this committee's study. It's making sure that we are building new programs and policies that take into account all diverse experiences and then operationalizing those, as well as looking at everything we have in place currently to make sure the programs are meeting the needs of a diverse population of veterans.
My colleague Pam may have more to add.
