Annual Leadership Summit

This annual Summit provides an opportunity for NACVSO Delegates and State CVSO Association Presidents to receive updates from veterans’ leaders, meet with their representatives in congress, and talk about national veterans’ issues and their impact on local communities from a variety of perspectives. Ultimately, the goal is to help NACVSO members see themselves in the process to inspire and perpetuate policies that improve access to services for veterans and their families.

The 2024 Summit was attended by 50 NACVSO Leaders (Delegates, Executive Board, Trainers, CVSOs) representing 22 states from across the nation. NACVSO Leaders had in-person meetings with Congressional Staffers in addition to several virtual meetings prior to and just after the Summit. NACVSO Leaders were able to network and discuss the best strategies throughout the Summit.
