Mount Vernon Chapter/MOAA Goals
2012
The primary goals of the Mount Vernon Chapter
are to benefit members of the uniformed services, their families and survivors,
and to promote a strong national defense.
As a chapter in the National Capital area, we
are in a unique position to advocate MOAA’s and our own viewpoints to DoD,
other veterans’ service organizations, the general public and Congress. We
actively attempt to take advantage of this opportunity.
Concurrent with support of MOAA national and state goals,
our chapter generates a broad range of activities
directed at informing and benefiting ourmembership
while encouraging and facilitating camaraderie.
We support service members and their
families, particularly those in, or returning from, a deployed status.
We maintain a college scholarship program for
local JROTC cadets that rewards academic, character and leadership excellence.
We link our members and their spouses to The Officer Placement Service (TOPS) of MOAA for career transition services (resume critiques, individual
counseling, online job postings, etc.)
We support Fort Belvoir Retirees' activities
and maintain active personal affairs and distinguished speakers programs to better inform our membership.
