WHAT IS THE PVA GALA?PVA’s mission continues to grow, and so does our annual gala. Formerly known as the Mission: ABLE Awards, the PVA Gala is a night to celebrate victories that have improved quality of life for all veterans and people living with disabilities – and the extraordinary leaders who made it happen.
On this night, PVA will bring together a community of dedicated supporters from the corporate and public sectors who champion the rights and care of veterans and others living with disabilities. We will bestow awards to influencers and innovators in the areas of accessibility, employment, and commitment to the PVA mission.
We hope you’ll join us!
