Welcome to NACVSO

Industry,

For over three decades, the National Association of County Veteran Service Officers (NACVSO) has remained at the forefront of a noble mission — to empower and educate County, Tribal and Governmental Veteran Service Officers (GVSOs) and advocates by equipping them with the knowledge and tools required to navigate the complex terrain of veterans' benefits and services offered by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). Established in 1989, NACVSO is now an established leader in the field, recognized for its passionate commitment to assisting our nation's veterans and their dependents.

NACVSO’s journey is one of unwavering dedication and continuous evolution. While its roots are planted in the delivery of top-tier training and education to Veteran Service Officers, it has evolved into a multi-dimensional organization, advocating tirelessly for veterans and their advocates, and influencing policy that directly impacts those who served our nation in uniform. NACVSO’s advocacy efforts continue to garner respect and recognition, making them one of the most respected voices in matters of legislative and VA policy.

Today, NACVSO boasts a robust community of over 2000 GVSOs members across 35 states and territories – and counting. Its strength and reach have positioned it for both operational stability and strategic expansion.

If you are a Veteran, you do not need to apply for membership to get assistance. NACVSO members do not charge a fee for their services. Please e-mail info@nacvso.org for assistance.
