On Monday, 13 Oct 2025, the U.S. Army Women’s Foundation hosted our AUSA Leadership Forum, “Thriving Beyond the Uniform” at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in Washington, D.C. Dr. Kyleanne Hunter (CEO of Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America, former USMC Attack Helicopter Pilot) answered questions in a “fireside chat” with AWF Executive Director Sue Fulton, followed by a dynamic panel discussion moderated by LTC (Ret) Michelle Horn. The distinguished panel of leaders—including LtCol (Ret) Kate Germano (USMC), CPT (Ret) Dawn Halfaker (USA), Kayla Williams, and BG (Ret) Twanda “Tia” Young (USA)—explored career transitions, leadership, and resilience beyond military service. The conversation and Q&A highlighted personal stories, policy perspectives, and practical tools to support women as they continue to lead and thrive after their time in uniform.
