Our Mission

IAVA is the premier evidence-based advocacy organization for America’s post-9/11 veterans. Member-driven and grounded in rigorous research, we pursue policy change with the same courage our members brought to service.

How We Fight

Research: Data That Drives Change

At IAVA, data drives everything we do. From our comprehensive member surveys to our in-depth research, we use real numbers to shape policies and programs that make a lasting impact.

Educate: Informing Veterans. Empowering Communities.

Knowledge is one of the most powerful tools for advocacy. IAVA equips veterans, policymakers, media, and the public with trusted information about the issues impacting the military and veteran community. Through educational resources, leadership development, public awareness campaigns, policy briefings, events, and veteran storytelling, we help people understand not only the challenges facing veterans but also the solutions that create lasting change. Education transforms awareness into action.

Direct Advocacy: Turning Veteran Experiences Into Action

Research and education only matter when they lead to results. IAVA works directly with Congress, the Administration, the Department of Veterans Affairs, and national stakeholders to advance policies that improve the lives of post-9/11 veterans and their families. Guided by our members’ priorities, we mobilize veterans to engage lawmakers, share their stories, and influence legislation. From Capitol Hill to communities across America, IAVA transforms the experiences of veterans into policies that deliver real, lasting impact.

Our Ethos

Mission First

We are here to serve and empower our post9/11 veterans community. We believe these dynamic men and women represent America’s future — our next greatest generation. They are our true north, and everything we do is designed to focus on them and the positive future they bring to the world.

Integrity Always

We hold ourselves to the highest standards of efficiency, effectiveness, honesty, and transparency. We fight hard and take tough stands. That’s not always easy, but it’s who we are and what our mission requires.

Everyone is Welcome

The veterans movement is for every veteran. Our diversity is our strength. We are a community that welcomes everyone, of every background, time period, and discharge status. The veterans movement is not for veterans alone. Our success is America’s success. We believe everyone can do something to help.

Respect Must be Paid

Our write-up

Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America is in our directory because we went looking for resources in this category and confirmed theirs is real and serving this community. What you see above is their own description, quoted from their site. We have not yet added our own write-up — the programs, eligibility and military fit that we check ourselves — and we would rather leave that blank than guess at it.

In the meantime, their official site is the authority: iava.org

For the organization

Are you Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America?

This page was written about you, not by you. We built it because the people we serve were already looking for you and deserved a straight answer about what you do. If anything here is wrong, out of date, or puts it badly, we would rather hear it from you than leave it up.

Claiming it gives you an account here and a route to request changes — corrections, new programs, updated events. Those requests are handled by Meridian Tech, our partner, under their subscription service. You are not editing this page yourself, and we would rather say that plainly now than have you find out after you sign up.

“Claim this page” opens a checkout on milconnect.com, where you set up your organization's account. Being listed here is free, and staying listed is free. Meridian Tech — the company that also builds and runs MILCONNECT.AI — provides the account and the update service, and the AI Workspace is their paid product. We are telling you about a commercial relationship before you act on it rather than after, because you are a nonprofit being asked to spend money and you deserve to see the whole shape of it first. If anything on this page is simply wrong, email us and we will fix it for free; that never requires a subscription.

This page is maintained by MILCONNECT.AI and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or authored by Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America. It is a directory entry compiled from community recommendations. We do not rate, rank or endorse anything in this directory, and being listed here is not a recommendation — clinical or otherwise. We are not a medical provider and cannot tell you whether a program is right for you. Check eligibility, cost and current status with the organization directly before you rely on it.
