Rules We’re doing that.”Ĭox encourages all veterans to come to NOLA VFW during its weekly open house on Thursday nights - membership and hats not required. “Keeping the doors open and answering calls when veterans need help or information is a large part of what makes a successful post. “Our membership and leadership foster an environment that belongs to veterans of every gender, race, orientation, religion, and age,” said Cox. But as members and most of New Orleans military and veterans already participate in Red Dress Run, Santa bar crawls, and a host of other local events, it feels organic. The post is marching in its first Gay Pride Parade through the historic French Quarter - glitter kilts optional. However, this year, they’ve upped the ante. NOLA VFW membership also includes marching full force in camo kilts and helping pull the keg during the city’s St. New Orleans Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 8973 walking in a parade in March 2022. Another member was hired as an armorer at a local gun shop.” “One member who recently used his GI Bill and VA vocational rehabilitation to earn his Tulane law degree was hired at a local law firm that way. “We’ve had informal success simply by introducing transitioning service members to opportunities made available simply by networking,” says Cox. This month, the post hosted a conference between the VA, the Louisiana Department of Veterans Affairs, and other community leaders strengthening the post’s network of veteran specific initiatives, including employment outreach through a veterans’ employment program. The post also hosts job fairs, networking events, resume seminars, and PTSD outreach assistance. Afterwards, they helped serve meals - and enjoyed a BBQ with residents. After enlisting assistance from a network of local non-profits and businesses, NOLA VFW spent the day on neighborhood cleanup and repainting a historic veteran-owned corner store pivotal to area. ![]() In early May, the post was all the way across town in the city’s economically challenged Ninth Ward. This includes building ramps for the disabled and house repairs. If they require transitioning assistance and support, members are ready to help them access VA health care, benefits, and other services earned while in service. Cox’s goal is that all the city’s veterans understand that NOLA VFW is their resource. To this end, the post is expanding its outreach miles past its boundaries. Cox says he recognizes that veterans living in other areas of the city are unaware of the once small post and they may be unaware the city even has a VFW.
