HCHIPS Help. 📣 Advocacy
The only congressionally chartered VSO dedicated solely to Native American veterans — chartered in the FY2024 National Defense Authorization Act, the first new congressional charter granted to any veterans organization in 15 years, and the first ever for a Native American veterans group. Founded 2004 on the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribal Reservation in response to a Senate Veterans' Affairs Committee hearing. 14 regional offices serving 140,000+ Native American veterans nationwide. Works with Tribal Veterans Service Officers on benefits claims, advocates before Congress, and will be VA-accredited for claims representation under the charter. Native Americans serve at five times the national average — the charter gives NAIV the platform to match that service.

CCHIPS Community. 🤝 Peer
Founded in 2010 by Army veteran Mitchelene BigMan — White House Champion of Change recipient — dedicated to empowering Native American women veterans and active duty service members worldwide. A virtual organization with members stationed globally, serving as the first all-female Native American color guard in the country. Programs: readjustment support and cultural reintegration for transition to civilian life, mental health and wellness resources, career readiness programs, cultural preservation and advocacy through educational programs and community events, and benefits navigation with tribal veterans services officers. Open to non-military and non-Native allies as support members. Because Native American women are the fastest-growing population of veterans and serve at some of the highest rates per capita of any demographic group.
