DescMembership - regular membership shall be granted to any person who wishes to further the purposes of both VVA and AVVA; regular membership is granted to any person ineligible for VVA. Supporting membership shall be granted to those eligible for VVA. Education - Educating families on recognizing and managing issues affecting Vietnam veterans through seminars and printed materials; printed materials guiding the veteran on gathering and organizing important documents related to his/her service and end-of-life requests; educating families of the veterans exposure to dioxins and the affects passed onto the next generation through seminars and town hall meetings; printed materials listing and explaining benefits due to spouses of Vietnam veterans through the VA system. Other Programs- We strive to create a positive impact on our veterans by reaching out in the community assisting with annual homeless grants and supporting various veterans projects throughout the year. We encourage volunteering in our communities throughout the US by having our members donate their time and talents, over 23,000 hours reported in the last year. Our Secondary PTSD Peer Support Program brings awareness to the existence of the condition with the needed interaction and support of other military spouses experiencing the symptoms of PTSD disorder in their veteran partner. We also bring caregiving support through online peer groups to our veterans spouses and families. We introduced one new program in 2022. Heartbreak to Hope. A peer-support program for widows of veterans and for families of veterans in hospice care.Desc
