Details
Description: DAV helps more than one million veterans every year connect with the healthcare, disability, employment, education, and financial benefits they've earned. If you're a veteran or are transitioning out of the military, DAV is here to help you and your family through a lifetime of services and support.
Mission: We are dedicated to a single purpose: empowering veterans to lead high-quality lives with respect and dignity. We accomplish this by ensuring that veterans and their families can access the full range of benefits available to them; fighting for the interests of America's injured heroes on Capitol Hill; and educating the public about the great sacrifices and needs of veterans transitioning back to civilian life.
Programs: Transportation: DAV operates a fleet of vehicles around the country to provide free transportation to VA medical facilities for injured and ill veterans.
