SUMMARY:Vietnam Veterans of America Hosting Agent Orange Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Finally\, the VA is beginning to admit and recognize a limited number of health issues in children of veterans exposed to Agent Orange in the Vietnam War.  The VA acknowledges spina bifida in children of veterans to be a result of their parents' exposure to Agent Orange.  Eighteen other serious birth defects are considered by the VA to be a consequence of Agent Orange only if the mother was exposed to it. In addition to identifying conditions now covered by the VA\, the discussion will include how we can assist current efforts to support bills in Congress that will advance research on this important issue.  The Vietnam War ended in 1975\, but the VA did not recognize any Agent Orange effects until the 1990's   we cannot move that slowly this time.
