TexVet Missions:

» One – Support Texas military, veterans and family members with information and referral services and by facilitating the delivery of these services across traditional boundaries.

» Two – Serve as the hub for the statewide peer to peer facilitation network and volunteers. By documenting and supporting this network we will facilitate the delivery of services, increase engagement by volunteers and ensure the continuity of the network for the future.

» New wars redefined the role of WHO America sees as a veteran.

» What picture or image comes to mind when I say:

American Veteran?

Army Soldier?

Marine?

Airman?

Cadet?

Who’s

IN

And

Who’s

OUT?

Certain situations cause us to want to ensure that organizations

are blessing the veterans’ lives and not targeting them.

• Your father, conservative World War II Veteran, is approached by

an organization that wants to ‘help’ him…

• What would you want to know before allowing that organization

access into his life?

• What questions would you

want to ask before letting any

organization get personally

involved in the life of your

family member… or friend?

Veteran Service

Organizations

• FEDERAL (VBA, DOD, OneSource)

• STATE (TVC, TVLB, DSHS, TWC)

• LOCAL (USO, VFW, Non Profits)
