WHO WE ARE


we are veterans
NAMVETS of America serves veterans of all races, ethnicities, genders and religions. We focus on minoriy and women veterans because of the challenges they face both in the military and in the civilian environment. We work to give veterans a fair shake, no matter who they are or where they come from.


we are americans
As veterans of the US military, we sacrificed for America and its Constitution – which we hold so dear. As Veterans, we have earned the right to be heard on the issues that affect the lives of Veterans and their family members in communities across America.




we are patriots
We are patriots not simply because we deeply respect and love our country and what it stands for. We believe in democracy and the Constitution, and we are willing to defend and protect America whenever necessary.

NAMVETS of America believes that there is power in unity. To this end, we build bridges between communities, work to understand the issues affecting Veterans and then speak with one voice to address critical issues at the local, state and national level.
