Most Disabled American Veterans (DAV) vans are not wheelchair accessible.  Some time ago, I know I heard about a DAV van program that had a wheelchair accessible van, I believe as a result of a local partnership, but I can’t remember where it was.  Does anyone know of a DAV van program that has wheelchair accessible vans?

 

Thank you,  Carrie

Carrie - let me look into it, but I don't know offhand of any ones that they run that are accessible.
