Paralyzed Veterans of America- Minnesota Chapter

Founded in 1946, the Paralyzed Veterans of America (PVA) is a national organization dedicated to serving former members of the U.S. Armed Forces who have suffered catastrophic paralysis because of spinal cord injury or disease. The key objective of the PVA is to take the actions necessary to restore spinal cord injury or diseased victims’ bodies and life potentials as closely possible to those not suffering spinal cord dysfunction. In Minnesota, the chapter was granted status in 1993, and currently has over 300 members.
