1. What is the purpose of the Unified Arizona Veterans?
The purpose of the UAV is to actively propose, support and endorse legislative, administrative or other actions which further the general welfare and well-being of all Arizona veterans. We are dedicated to initiating and supporting activities and objectives which stimulate our love of country and our flag. Among these activities, the UAV provides management and support of the Arizona Veterans Hall of Fame (AVHOF) and sponsors the Annual Copper Shield Award which honors a State of Arizona legislator for his/her service to community. The UAV is committed to defend the honor and integrity of our Nation, the Constitution of the United States of America, the American Flag, and the State of Arizona. UAV provides a key conduit of information to all member organizations through our monthly meetings and our close working relationship with the Arizona Department of Veterans’ Services.
