For Veterans returning with the scars of war, the fight doesn’t end upon their arrival home. Unfortunately, some of the biggest battles are with the very institutions who are supposed to be on their side; whether it be the Department of Defense, the Department of Veterans Affairs, or Congress, when they simply don’t understand the challenges Veterans face, or when they turn a deaf ear.

Our Advocacy Program assists where the needs are greatest right now; reforming VA healthcare, ensuring the Caregivers of the seriously disabled are properly supported, and addressing the latent problems of toxic exposure. The Independence Fund fights for those who fought for us.
