DEPARTMENT OF IOWA
CHAPTERS

     Getting involved in your local chapter is one of the many ways you can reach out to fellow veterans in your community.

     DAV chapter members usually meet monthly to network and discuss general issues of the organization. Legislation, volunteer efforts and community projects are among the topics discussed, as well as upcoming events and activities. Chapters often hold formal ritual ceremonies in which new members are obligated into the organization.

     The Chapter Membership delivers a variety of services to maintain a large, strong and active membership base. By coordinating and extending our mission into communities where veterans and their families live, DAV members promote an agenda for the well-being of Iowa’s disabled veterans and their families. With 19 Chapters, we closed the 2010/2011 membership year with over 6,000 wartime service disabled veterans. We are steering our course and focusing our attention on attracting and maintaining a younger group of disabled veterans; men and woman who witnessed hostilities and other crises in places like Lebanon, Grenada, Panama, the Persian Gulf, Somalia, Haiti, Bosnia, Afghanistan and Iraq. However, this generation of veterans presents unprecedented challenges to recruitment.

     We also offer membership benefits that provide real value on products and services that enhance the lives of veterans and their families. These include discounts on long-distance telephone and Internet services, Ford Motor Company vehicles, Dell and Apple computer products, rental cars, travel services and long-distance moving programs, a prescription drug plan, a legal services network, as well as Hickory Farms, Omaha Steak and DISH network discounts.
