Iraq War veteran Allison Jaslow was named the new CEO of Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America on Monday, giving the organization its first female leader and making her the first openly gay individual to lead a major U.S. veterans organization.

Jaslow, who previously served as executive director of the group, will replace departing CEO Jeremy Butler, who has served in the role since 2019.
