A veteran - whether active duty, retired, national
guard or reserve - is someone who, at one point in his life,
wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America",
for an amount of "up to and including my life." That is honor,
and there are way too many people in this country who no longer
understand it. "Author Unknown"

Core to PVA's mission is helping veterans and all people with spinal
cord injury and disease (SCI/D) enjoy the high quality of life they
deserve.
Through Paralyzed
Veterans of America's Advocacy Program, Paralyzed Veterans offers
up-to-date disability rights information and resources on this web
site. Paralyzed Veterans further advocates for people living with
SCI/D through speaking out on Capitol Hill and by working with federal
agencies such as the Department of Justice to see that nondiscrimination
laws are implemented and enforced.
