Americans For A Stronger Navy
Americans for a Stronger Navy is a community driven, membership supported organization dedicated to promoting the peace through strength and readiness of the U.S. Navy. Our mission is to educate the public and policymakers on the importance of a strong navy to America’s security and to advocate for policies that support the Navy’s ability to meet the challenges of a rapidly changing global security environment.
Mission: Promote a strong and capable US Navy to protect American interests at home and abroad and ensure peace through strength.
Vision: A peaceful world secured through a strong and capable United States Navy, projecting American power and protecting American interests.
Strategy: Engage the public and policymakers through education and outreach initiatives to increase funding and support for Navy programs and technology.
Our strategy will be supported by several key initiatives, listed below in order of priority:
Initiatives
- Fleet Forward initiative: This initiative will focus on the development of new and improved shipyards and maintenance programs, as well as the expansion of the Navy’s fleet with the latest and most technologically advanced ships. We will prioritize the development of trained personnel and shipyards to meet the needs of Navy programs. You can follow along with our efforts and progress under the ‘Fleet Forward’ category.
- “Who’s Who” directory initiative: This comprehensive directory of active duty and reserve Navy personnel, retired Navy, supporters, business and industries doing business with them will serve as a valuable resource for networking, career development, and recognizing top performers in the Navy as well as a b2b and b2c Directory.
- Tell us your Story initiative: This initiative will highlight the day-to-day life of active-duty personnel and veterans of the U.S. Navy, sharing the latest developments and innovations in naval technology and strategy, as well as the experiences and perspectives of those who serve in the Navy. You can follow along with our efforts and progress under the ‘Tell us your Story’ category.
- US Navy Week initiative: Navy Week is a crucial initiative that brings the Navy to communities throughout the United States. This year, Navy Week is being held in 14 cities across the country, providing a unique opportunity to showcase the Navy’s assets, equipment, and personnel. Through Navy Week, we aim to educate Americans on the vital role of Naval service and the value of a strong Navy in protecting the American way of life. We support Navy Week by conducting press outreach to local dignitaries, community groups, and the public to shine a spotlight on the Navy’s activities and participants, including outreach to the community. The Navy Week program is an essential component of the Navy’s outreach efforts, helping to build a stronger, more informed, and supportive community of Americans committed to the Navy’s mission.
- Why Join the Navy initiative: This initiative highlights the unique skills and experiences that military veterans, particularly those who served in the Navy, bring to the tech industry. These include leadership, problem-solving, and technical skills, making Navy veterans valuable assets in the fast-paced tech industry. You can follow along with our efforts and progress under the ‘Join Navy’ category.
- Naval History Matters initiative: This initiative will educate the public on the positive role of the U.S. Navy and the brave individuals who have served in the past, exploring a different moment in the rich history of the U.S. Navy each week. You can follow along with our efforts and progress under the ‘Naval History’ category.
Many Americans advocate for a stronger Navy to achieve “peace through strength.” This is because a robust Navy can enhance national security by protecting the United States and its interests abroad, projecting military power to deter potential adversaries, and promoting stability in regions of strategic importance.
Additionally, a strong Navy can safeguard economic growth by protecting trade routes and ensuring the free flow of goods and resources. Moreover, a powerful Navy can enable the US to provide aid and support to allies and be more effective in humanitarian missions, further promoting peace and stability.
