Mission
This page describes what TexVet's goals are for the future and what TexVet is doing and plans to do to ensure that Veterans and their families receive what they are entitled to.


TexVet is the effort of collaborative organizations including the United States Department of Defense, Veterans Health Administration, Texas Military Forces, and State of Texas programs and agencies including the Health and Human Services Commission's 2-1-1 Texas Information and Referral Network (TIRN).

The TexVet Initiative's mission statement and purpose consists of the following points:

Reaching the Market

Implementing a broad supportive and aggressive media strategy for outreach to all military personnel, veterans, and their loved ones at all phases of their service that avoids any stigma associated with the need for services.

Keeping Current

Maintaining current, updated information about, and direct referral to, all public and private community resources available to veterans and their families in their immediate location.

Developing Web-based Access

Linking comprehensive website content on topics of importance to all military members, veterans, and their loved ones, and community members representing schools, employers, and faith communities.

Finding Resources

Creating ongoing community partnerships between an effective team of public, private, and academic organizations that serve and support military personnel, veterans, and their families.
