About Us
The Paralyzed Veterans of America Mid-Atlantic Chapter was founded by a band of service members who came home from World War II with spinal cord injuries. They returned to a grateful nation, but also to a world with few solutions to the new challenges they faced. They made a decision not just to live, but to live with dignity as contributing members of society. They created Paralyzed Veterans of America, an organization dedicated to veterans’ service, medical research, and civil rights for all people with disabilities.
Located in Chesterfield County, Virginia, the Paralyzed Veterans of America Mid-Atlantic Chapter was officially formed in 1947 and is one of the six original co-founding chapters of the organization. With more than 800 members, the work continues today to create an America where all veterans and people with disabilities, and their families, have everything they need to live full and productive lives.
Mission
Paralyzed Veterans of America is a non-profit organization that supports paralyzed veterans through sporting events, financial support, and mentoring. Our mission is to be “a supportive community for capable heroes” and to promote and assure that all veterans receive quality care.

“I’m humbled and honored to have been given the opportunity to represent Team USA on the world stage.”
My time at the World Parasport Heyball Championships had come to an end. What a truly amazing event to experience. I’m humbled and honored to have been given the opportunity to represent Team USA on the world stage. I had 3 opportunities against Alan Reynolds 10x world snooker champion in WDBS to win a game against him, just could not capitalize on them. Same with Siyabulela “Coach” Ngcaweni from South Africa. They both are great players. This is just a lesson not a loss. You either win or you learn, I learned a lot this weekend from this from the World Parasports Heyball Championship.
