History of CVI

The Center for Veterans Issues, Ltd. was born out of longstanding frustration with a range of negative factors confronting veterans returning from the Vietnam War. After many years of trying to work through a number of efforts and institutions, the Center was founded as a way of providing a consistent, professional, effective, and replicable means of moving beyond the advocacy and addressing problems harming low-income veterans and their families.

Core Customer Base & Impact

At the core of all Center for Veterans Issues service delivery is the veteran in need. Providing holistic services, either directly or through collaboration, certainly will improve the quality of life for veterans in need.

However, the impact of that improvement in the quality of the veteran’s life does not end there. The Center for Veterans Issues believes that improved quality of life for the veteran leads to improved quality of life for their families. This, in turn, leads to stronger communities and states as well as the nation as a whole.
