Purpose

To support the transition, health and wellbeing of all veterans and their families so that they feel valued and can atain stability in life after service.

Note: Our definition of veteran includes ADF veterans, first responders who have deployed on peacekeeping operations or were formerly ADF, and any civilian who has deployed on peacekeeping or peacemaking operations such as DFAT members, the Australian Electoral Commission and civilian peace monitors.

Our Core Values

ENGAGE

CONNECT

To connect all stakeholders through services that are purpose built to give professional representation to all who do not feel they have a voice locally or nationally, and to disseminate issues and information.

RESPECT

To respect the contributions made by participants in modern operations and demonstrate this by appointing younger veterans to representational positions and giving them ownership.
