In 2007, IAVA will continue to push for effective legislation that really supports troops and veterans. Since our founding in 2004, IAVA has been the single most visible nonprofit organization to respond to body and HMMWV armor shortages, the challenges of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, and inadequate funding for veterans' healthcare.
If your office is sponsoring or signing on to legislation that helps achieve our legislative agenda, we look forward to working with you. Our members and staff are available to provide first-hand testimony, independent research, a mobilized grassroots base and a vocal presence in media to affect all issues related to the military and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
For legislative matters, please contact our Legislative Director, Iraq veteran Patrick Campbell, at
. For background information and data on any of the issues addressed in our Legislative Agenda, please contact Vanessa Williamson, IAVA Research Director, at (212) 982-9699. For media inquiries, please contact our Communications Department at (212) 982-9699. We look forward to hearing from you.
