WE REMEMBER
Since NACV was founded in Minnesota in 1968 and established its National Headquarters in Washington, D.C. in 1972, generations of veterans, advocates, members, and friends have helped carry our mission forward. Here, we pause to remember them and to offer the farewell their service deserves.

Can you tell me more about what the National Association of Concerned Veterans does?
The National Association of Concerned Veterans(NACV) provides comprehensive readjustment, transition, and re-entry services to as many veterans as possible each year. Cecil Byrd, the National Association of Concerned Veterans' executive director, along with the NACV board, have designed a comprehensive re-entry model that we recommend every veteran go through. It is designed to prepare a veteran, in six to twelve weeks, with all the resources and linkages (i.e., education, training, and awareness) to develop and implement a solid, successful re-entry plan.
Get in touch with the National Association of Concerned Veterans today if you have any questions or comments.

Tell me more about the Great Expectations Program.
Great Expectations provides rehabilitation, vocational training, substance abuse treatment, and sobriety. It provides for a seamless transition into civilian life from the military, focusing on the wounded warrior. Our goal is to lead them to become wounded healers and link them with the Veterans' Administration as well as other community, government, and civilian resources and services.
