Veterans Advisory Commission

Veterans Advisory Commission

The mission of the City Commission on Veterans' Affairs (CCVA) is to serve the Mayor and City Council in an advisory capacity on issues affecting the City's military population, both active and retired. These issues include elderly services, disabled services, homelessness, affordable housing, health, and employment. The commission serves as the community's liaison and advocate for veterans' affairs and makes recommendations for improving services. The commission will consider the impact of any future base realignments and closures to the City's military population, and also act as a clearinghouse on the many services available to veterans. These advisory roles include addressing legislative issues affecting the City's military population, both active and retired; serving as the community's liaison and advocate for Veterans' affairs; advising the City Council on issues affecting San Antonio veterans and their families; and making recommendations for improving the City’s services.

The commission is composed of 11 members: 10 District-appointed members appointed by their respective Councilmembers and one member appointed by the Mayor. Commissioners serve overlapping two-year staggered terms of office and may serve no more than three two-year terms.
