We are excited to share with you some changes coming up in the next few months that will update the look and feel of WHV and give you a better customer experience.
We are currently developing a new website and logo for WHV! The website address will remain the same, but the site will have an updated design and a smoother interface, making it easier for you to find what you need. The new logo will mirror the new NHPCO branding with a similar logo format. Not everyone realizes that We Honor Veterans is a program of NHPCO, and we hope that this refreshed logo will make that connection clearer while still putting the focus on serving Veterans. The plan is to launch the new website and logo in April. At that time, we will have new partner logos for you, as well, so please keep this in mind if you are planning on using your logo on any merchandise or ordering any goods to display your WHV level.
Along with the updated website, we are updating the requirements for remaining on the WHV partner directory. We continue to be grateful for the commitment that so many have made to join the program, but we need to ensure that all organizations listed as WHV partners are active rather than simply registered. Following the initial website roll-out in April, further details regarding the requirements to remain a WHV partner will be announced. If you are currently working on an activity report, please ensure that the final is submitted before midnight (EST) on Monday, March 9, 2020.
If your report is saved as a draft, the information will be lost when we shut off submissions on this date. Please save your work to your computer if you are not ready to submit a complete report. Any incomplete activity reports will be deleted when we switch over to the new website.
New Level Requirements
To go along with our updated website and logo, we are refreshing the partner level system:
- The Recruit Partner level will no longer be listed in the WHV partner directory. Moving forward, the directory will include active partners beginning at Level 1. Any current Recruit Partners must complete a Level 1 activity report by Monday, March 9, to be included in the partner directory. Otherwise they will be removed from the system.
- The Level 5 Partner program will only be available to current NHPCO members. As we have shared, the current VA contract with WHV concludes in September of this year. Collaborative efforts with VA leadership and local facilities will always continue. As we initiate the search for new avenues of support, NHPCO will continue keeping our members at the forefront of our efforts. Partner Levels 1-4 will remain open to anyone. Further details regarding Level 5 submissions and cut-off dates for non-members will be sent out shortly to those already working on Level 5 activities. Please note that if you are not currently a member of NHPCO, you may no longer register your commitment to becoming a Level 5 partner. If you don’t know if your organization is a member, you can contact the NHPCO Solutions Center at solutions@nhpco.org or 800-646-6460.
- All partners must remain active. If your organization does not continue to log in to your account or move up the levels, you will be removed from the partner directory
