The Paralyzed Veterans of America was established in 1946 with the goal of serving the needs of disabled veterans. The organization was created to assist members, such as veterans of the armed forces living with spinal cord injuries or diseases like multiple sclerosis (MS) or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) in living with increased independence and dignity.

PVA is a Congressionally-chartered organization under Title 36 of the United States Code, headquartered in Washington, D.C. It currently has 33 chapters and 70 National Service Offices across the US and Puerto Rico. Their overall mission is to help paralyzed veterans and all people with disabilities live fuller, more productive lives.[1]
