SCVA’s mission is to advocate that public and private entities display commemorative flags on Memorial and Veterans Day in appreciation of veterans accomplishments; utilize existing Veterans Day recognition events as opportunities for connecting veterans eligible for VA care to the VA health system and the California Dept of Veteran Affairs; support the development of Veterans Day recognition events among those partners not yet participating; and develop a health initiative for reaching out to veterans who are underserved.
