Top Resources for Veterans Running for Office

July 11, 2019 Candidates Guide to Running for Office

Running for office as a veteran is a long road, but with the right support and resources a veteran can successfully step into a new form of public service. Veterans are highly valued, and their voices widely respected in political office. And while numbers of veterans in office has grown in recent years, the need for representation by these diverse and experienced voices is still high.

With that in mind, American Veterans Honor Fund has compiled a list of resources that can be of particular use for veterans who are considering or starting a run for office. This list will be continuously updated, so save it to keep on hand when the need arises.
