Five national discovery routes, not five more local groups. Directory presence does not establish active meetings, local admission or working contacts. Policies observed 2026-09-10 UTC · Dated source observation — confirm current details.
Veterans, service members, military families and supporters are included nationally; joining is free. Local activity, admission, accessibility and activity/travel costs need confirmation. Member-created events are not proof of organizer vetting.
Membership requires qualifying service and discharge conditions, including campaign, qualifying pay or specified Korea-service evidence; VFW decides. Auxiliary is a separate family pathway. Confirm local dues and guest access. Accredited claims assistance is free without paid membership; this does not establish event costs.
The official FAQ links to this locator; direct locator retrieval timed out, so reachability is unconfirmed. Use the membership FAQ below as a fallback. Confirm service and discharge membership requirements with the post; Title 10 and Title 32 are distinct in the FAQ. Dues are post-specific. National online enrollment may mean a headquarters administrative post without meetings or activities. Local transfer requires local acceptance; guest and family access need a separate check.
DAV claims, transition and employment assistance is free and does not require membership. Community membership has separate injury/illness, armed-conflict-period service and discharge conditions; direct combat and a VA service-connected determination are not required. Lifetime dues are separate from free assistance. DAV decides membership; local activity, guest rules and accommodations unknown.
Caregiver network across eras, relationships and locations with caregiver-role vetting. Individual groups have narrower rules: Chat and Sharing the Journey require unpaid, nonprofessional family/friend caregiving. Confirm current sessions, location access, costs and accommodations with info.mvcn@redcross.org.
