KDVA Member Community

Virtual Common Interest Groups

Connect with KDVA members around the world who share your experiences, interests, assignments, and connection to Korea and the ROK-U.S. Alliance.

Connect From Anywhere

Find Your KDVA Community

KDVA's Virtual Common Interest Groups — or CIGs — give members another way to connect beyond geographic Chapters. Groups are built around shared experiences, interests, assignments, locations, and service in Korea.

What is a Common Interest Group?

Common Interest Groups are virtual communities within KDVA's Member Portal where members can connect with others who share a common interest or experience.

You might connect with people who served during the same decade, were stationed at the same camp or base, served along the DMZ, participated in the Korea Revisit Program, or share another connection to Korea.

Members can engage in conversations, network, reconnect, and share stories and photographs from their experiences in Korea.

Virtual

Common Interest Groups

CIGs connect members virtually around shared experiences and interests. Members can participate in more than one Common Interest Group.

Local

KDVA Chapters

Chapters create local communities where members can connect through meet & greets, events, service, networking, and activities in their geographic area.

Another Member Benefit
