Every June 6th, we remember the anniversary of D-Day. This pivotal day was critical in helping to end World War II.

Today we honor the birthday of the Gold Star Mothers of America. Their children made the ultimate sacrifice while in service to our nation.

We invite you to join the Nevada Department of Veterans Services (NDVS) in honoring the courage, service, and legacy of women who have served in the United States Armed Forces.
Women Veterans Recognition Day will be observed on Friday, June 12, 2026, from 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM at NDVS Headquarters, 9400 Gateway Dr., Reno, NV 89521.

This special event will celebrate the contributions of women veterans across generations, provide an opportunity to connect with the community, and recognize the lasting impact of their service. Attendees will have the chance to share stories, build connections, and help inspire future generations.

Women Veterans Recognition Day, celebrated yearly on June 12th, recognizes, honors, and remembers the signing of the Women’s Armed Services Integration Act of 1948 allowing women the right to permanently serve in the regular armed forces.

All are welcome, and refreshments will be served. We hope you will join us in honoring women who have served.

NDVS was honored to attend the Memorial Day BBQ & Resource Fair at the North Las Vegas Veterans and Community Resource Center on Saturday. With great food, entertainment, a car show, and valuable support services, it was a wonderful event and a terrific turnout. Thank you to everyone who came out to connect, celebrate, and support our veteran community. We were proud to be part of it!
