NAMVETS of America changes its name but not its mission
Published on 2/4/2026
The National Association of Minority Veterans of America has changed its legal name to the National Association of Military Veterans of America to better reflect its mission and growth. The change affirms the organization’s commitment to serving all veterans, regardless of background, while continuing to address barriers that affect underserved communities.
The new name also sharpens the focus on military service itself. By centering “Military Veterans,” the organization clearly defines who it represents and strengthens alignment with government agencies, partners, and funders. This evolution expands inclusivity, clarifies identity, and reinforces a united commitment to advancing opportunity, access, and support for every veteran who served our nation.
