When Nancy discovered that her DAV Caregiver Support representative, Jaywana, was attending the DAV & Auxiliary National Convention, she made it a priority to meet her in person. Their monthly conversations had created a special bond, and the opportunity to connect face-to-face was a meaningful milestone in Nancy's caregiving journey.

We asked, you answered. The vast majority of veterans surveyed oppose the Take Care of America’s Veterans Act if Section 108 is included. It’s simple. Remove Section 108 and pass a clean version of TCAVA. Veterans, their families, caregivers and survivors are waiting. See MoreSee Less

Twenty-five years later, we remember.

Today on Patriot Day, we honor the nearly 3,000 people who lost their lives on Sept. 11, 2001, and the countless families, first responders, servicemembers and communities forever changed by that day.

In the days and years that followed, a generation of Americans answered the call to serve. For DAV, that meant standing alongside veterans and families whose lives were forever shaped by the wars that followed—and continuing to serve them long after they returned home.

Immediately following the Sept. 11 attacks, DAV mobilized to assist with the relief efforts. Manhattan-based NSOs volunteered at the Giants Stadium, the Javits Center and the ruins of the World Trade Center. On Sept. 21, DAV established an office at the Family Relief Center on Pier 94 alongside a host of other agencies. From this location, with the assistance of the FBI, New York fire and police departments, and the companies located in the World Trade Center, NSOs identified veterans and their families who were victims of the attacks and provided whatever assistance they could.

Today, we remember those we lost, honor those who served and continue to stand with the veterans and families whose lives were shaped by the events of Sept. 11. We will never forget.
