YOUR VOICE FOR THE RESERVE COMPONENT
ROA is the only national organization solely dedicated to advocating for and supporting Reserve and National Guard service members across all branches and ranks. ROA helps you stay informed, supported, and competitive while ensuring your service is represented where it matters most.
RESERVE COMPONENT BILL OF RIGHTS
Our Reserve Component service members may serve on a part-time basis, but they make a full-time impact. And it is our responsibility as a nation to take care of our reserve forces and their families and provide them with the pay, benefits, and support they’ve earned while serving us and our country.
Our reserves have a RIGHT to these benefits, and ROA is here to champion our reserves and support them on every step of their journey. And our Reserve Component Bill of Rights will be our guidepost.

AMERICA'S GUARD AND RESERVE AT THE FRONT EDGE OF CONFLICT
Freedom is never free. The first losses in Operation EPIC FURY came from the Guard and Reserve, already forward, already in the fight. We built a Reserve force that deploys on day one. Policy still treats it like it shows up later. That gap is real, and it bleeds readiness when it matters most.
HERE'S ONE MORE REASON WHY DUTY STATUS REFORM IS IMPERATIVE...
There are more than 30 duty statuses for our Reserve forces, a confusing structure that leads to inequitable benefits, administrative complexity, and readiness impacts. This matrix shows just how complex this system is. ROA is advocating to solve this.
