The Texas Veterans Network Expands Into The Coastal Bend

The Texas Veterans Network brings together nonprofit, for-profit, and governmental organizations who provide direct services to veterans, and acts as the front door to a web of available support for our veteran community and their immediate families – connecting health and social care.

All military members, including active duty, retirees, veterans, guardsmen, reservists, and their families, may qualify for services. Requests for assistance can be made by visiting www.TXVeteransNetwork.com, or by contacting the Texas Veterans Network at (888) 724-8387. Visit https://texas.uniteus.com/veterans-network/ to learn more.

For more information about the expansion in the Coastal Bend Region and how you can participate, please contact Katrina V. Cromwell, Veterans Program Coordinator – Corpus Christi at (210) 386-2738 or kcromwell@aacog.com.

Helping veterans and their families enter or return to the nation’s workforce is our privilege. If you’re a veteran, we can help you assess how skills you acquired in the military can help you get a job. We can help you figure out what skills are in demand and where you can get those skills or improve the skills you already have.

Whether you left the armed forces 10 days ago or 10 years ago, your employment needs to receive our immediate attention. Our Career Centers include veterans who work for the Texas Veterans Commission and are able to help you with the process of re-entering the civilian workforce.
