The Agent Orange Next Gen Campaign
During the Agent Orange litigation, 65,000 veterans reported that their children had been born with birth defects or developmental disabilities. Now veterans are also reporting that their grandchildren are affected. Yet, no government studies have been done on the association between the father’s exposure to Agent Orange and adverse outcomes in their children.
Since 1990, only Birth Defect Research for Children has
collected data showing a pattern of birth defects and disabilities in the
children of Vietnam veterans.
The Agent Orange Next Gen Campaign will draw attention to
how many veterans’ families have been affected and raise funds to continue
birth defect research.
Join the Vietnam Veterans of America Charles Kettle Chapter
31 in showing your support for the children and grandchildren of Vietnam
Veterans affected by Agent Orange. Wear an Agent Orange Next Gen mask. For each
$10 mask sold, a donation will go towards research connecting Agent Orange
exposure to the birth defects and illnesses that veterans’ children and
grandchildren are facing every day. Please help by ordering your mask today.
