of the upcoming open house
celebrating women veterans.
The free event is Friday,

ment of Veterans’ Affairs
womens veterans coordina-
tor, will be on and to answer
questions. Refreshments will
be served.
The “I Am Not Invisible”
exhibit features nearly two
dozen female veterans from
Oregon. The project is the
brainchild of Estabrooks and
Felita Singleton, Portland
State University Veterans
Resource Center Director.
The two women com-
missioned the project after
hearing concerns from fe-
male veterans. The goal is to
increase awareness and dia-
logue about women veterans
and to enhance the public’s
view of their experiences —
both good and bad, Singleton
said.
