The VA Medical Center will now be known as the Jennifer Moreno Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center.
On March 14, President Joe Biden signed into law H.R. 3665, designating that the VA San Diego Medical Center be renamed in Ms. Moreno’s honor.
Ms. Moreno was deployed as part of a special operations Cultural Support Team and gave her life during combat operations in Afghanistan.
This is the first VA facility to be named in honor of a Latina veteran, and the third named for a female veteran.
