In conjunction with the BVA National Board of Directors, the National Blinded Veterans Association Auxiliary (BVAA), with its currently constituted leadership and members, is invited to hold a business meeting at the 78th National Convention on Monday, August 14. The meeting has been scheduled for 1:00-3:00pm in Gateway B of the Marriott St. Louis Grand. 

The meeting has been scheduled for the purpose of electing BVAA officers for the upcoming fiscal year. All current BVAA members and those interested in joining are encouraged to attend.

BVAA was created in 1977 as a means by which family members and friends of blinded veterans could more unitedly support both BVA as an organization and its individual members. Over the years, BVAA has established its own support groups and networks, organized social events, promoted healthy lifestyles, and sponsored a scholarship program for the spouses and children of veterans with sight loss.
