Since 1922, ROA has championed the cause of Reservists at home and on the battlefield. The evolution of that mission over 90 years has helped protect the rights and benefits of millions of individual Reservists while preserving a strong and capable Reserve Force as a component to our national security.

Please join us for our first ReserveConnect Forum on June 9, 2026, focusing on Behavioral Health Challenges in the Reserve Components.

ROA will be hosting two live webinars focusing on behavioral health challenges Reservists and their families face, early eligibility and TAMP 180 for TRICARE benefits, reintegration from conflict zones, current stressors on the force, and the lack of available resources.

The webinars will be held at noon and 7:00p.m. ET. The webinar content will be identical so plan to attend the one that best fits your schedule.

You can register for the webinars via the links in the comments. 👇👇👇
