Support Our Local Men & Women in Uniform

In appreciation of the service and sacrifices made by local men and women in uniform, the Dare County Board of Commissioners provides a local Veterans Service Office to help veterans and their dependents gain information and assistance in accessing all available benefits.

This year, the advisory council has applied to receive “The Wall That Heals” in 2023 — a traveling three-quarter scale replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial that tours the country along with a mobile education center. To help the advisory council raise funds for this opportunity or to sign up as a volunteer, click here.
