Our History
The journey of NAARVA began in 1994 with a small group of African American RV owners who recognized the need for a community where individuals could share their experiences, challenges, and joys of RVing. Since then, NAARVA has evolved into a national association with members in all corners of the United States, holding annual rallies, regional events, and contributing to charitable causes.
Our Values
• Community: Building a strong, supportive community of RVers.
• Adventure: Encouraging exploration and adventure in the great outdoors.
• Inclusivity: Fostering an environment where everyone feels welcome and valued.
• Education: Providing resources and opportunities for learning about RVing, safety, and the environment.
• Heritage: Celebrating and promoting the rich cultural heritage of African Americans through RVing.
Our Impact
Over the years, NAARVA has significantly impacted promoting outdoor recreational activities among families, providing a platform for education, community service, and cultural exchange. Through our events, initiatives, and partnerships, we continue to advocate for diversity and inclusion within the RVing community and beyond.
