Speakers from the Disabled American Veterans will also attend and discuss topics of interest to disabled veterans and their families. Traditionally, the DAV Auxiliary National Fall Conference is an open forum providing ample opportunity for questions, answers, and comradeship.

The organization just launched a strategic planning process that has sparked a renewal of interest designed to provide new direction and growth to ultimately better assist those disabled during service to their country while offering continued support to their families.
