Membership in VVA is the Right Choice. VVA is a "home of our own" - a community of fellowship with people who share your experiences, needs, and hopes for the future. Join for fellowship, volunteer opportunities, and community service. Be as active as your time, talents, and interests allow. Or, simply be a proud member of VVA, knowing that your membership helps VVA work for you and your fellow Vietnam veterans. The VVA national organization keeps less than half of your membership dues. The rest stays at the state and local level to support programs and services for veterans and their families. Visit the website for the national organization to learn more about the VVA and what it does: www.vva.org. Membership includes a subscription to our award-winning national newspaper, bringing you updates on issues and legislation affecting veterans, as well as unique articles on the people, places, and history of the Vietnam experience. You'll also receive our Chapter 49 newsletter. Membership in the VVA is open to any Vietnam-era Veteran who served on active duty in the US armed forces between January 1, 1959 & May 7, 1975. Associate Membership in the VVA is open to all who share our concerns - both men and women, friends, supporters, and families - Veteran or not. Life Membership / Associate Life Membership is available to all who wish to demonstrate a greater commitment to the ideals and work of the VVA. Print out a copy of the VVA membership application. Please include a copy of your DD-214 with your application. Families, friends, supporters, and veterans of other eras can join the Associates of Vietnam Veterans of America and receive the same benefits. |
