The reasons are as individual as our members. Some join for the fellowship at our more than 1,200 local chapters. Some for the inspiring national events. Others for opportunities to serve their fellow veterans and their families. And many join to continue the fight to support the rights and benefits of all veterans. DAV understands the needs of veterans because we are veterans—1 million strong. We invite you to join our cause.
On this day in 1948, President Harry S. Truman signed Executive Order 9981, officially desegregating the U.S. military. The order declared there would be “equality of treatment and opportunity” for all servicemembers, regardless of race. DAV honors the Black veterans whose service, sacrifice and perseverance helped move the nation forward.
For many veterans, serving others does not stop once they leave their military post. Many continue to serve at home or in their community as caregivers. DAV Caregivers Support was founded for caregivers of veterans and veterans who provide care to someone else.
Who can be a caregiver? Caregivers can be spouses or partners, adult children or parents, friends, neighbors, roommates or extended family. Caregivers regularly help with meals, run errands, provide rides, and help with home safety, finances or emotional support.
