Welcome to the site of the Paralyzed Veterans of America, Gateway Chapter!

The Paralyzed Veterans of America, a congressionally chartered veterans service organization founded in 1946, has developed a unique expertise on a wide variety of issues involving the special needs of our members--honorably discharged veterans of the armed forces who have experienced spinal cord injury or dysfunction.

PVA will use that expertise to be the leading advocate for: 1) Quality health care for our members, 2) Research and education addressing spinal cord injury or dysfunction, 3) Benefits available as a result of our members' military service, and 4) Civil rights and opportunities which maximize the independence of our members.

To enable PVA to continue to honor this commitment, we must recruit and retain members who have the experience, energy, dedication, and passion necessary to manage the organization and ensure adequate resources to sustain the programs essential for PVA to achieve its mission.

Gateway is one of 34 chapters of the Paralyzed Veterans of America. Our local chapter was chartered in the State of Missouri in October 1976. We are a member of the Better Business Bureau, have met all 20 BBB Standards for Charity Accountability and have received their designation as an Honor Roll Charity. We appreciate your interest in our organization and will be happy to answer any questions that you may have about our programs and services.
