Celebrating 5 Years of Service: Texas Veterans Network Powered by Combined Arms Marks Milestone Anniversary

A Partnership Committed to Connecting Veterans to Life-Changing Resources

HOUSTON, April 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Today marks the momentous 5-year anniversary of the Texas Veterans Network (TVN) Powered by Combined Arms, a groundbreaking initiative that has redefined how Texas serves its veterans and their families. As the first interconnected state network dedicated exclusively to supporting veterans, TVN has helped over 70,000 veterans access the resources and opportunities they deserve, allowing them to thrive and build successful futures. 

Since its inception, TVN has been a symbol of collaboration, powered by the collective efforts of more than 300 state agencies and nonprofit organizations. At the heart of this initiative lies a commitment to ensuring veterans, who have sacrificed so much for our country, receive the services and support they need to succeed in civilian life. 

"We are deeply grateful to the Texas Workforce Commission for their instrumental role in launching this visionary initiative," said Mia Garcia, Executive Director of TVN Powered by Combined Arms. "It is because of their leadership and the collaboration of our extensive network of partners that we have been able to make a tangible impact on the lives of so many veterans and their families. This anniversary is a testament to the power of community-driven solutions and the collective will to serve those who have served us." 

In partnership with over 300 state agencies and nonprofits, TVN has successfully created a seamless, holistic system that connects veterans with essential services—ranging from healthcare and employment assistance to mental health support, housing resources, and education. 

"We've seen firsthand how TVN's collaborative efforts have made a real difference in the lives of Texas veterans," said Juliet Stipeche, Executive Director, Workforce Solutions Gulf Coast. "The Texas Veterans Network represents the spirit of innovation and unity, and we're proud to have played a role in its creation and continued success. The 5-year milestone is a testament to the impact of this program, and we look forward to continuing to support veterans and their families for years to come." 

The Texas Veterans Network's success is rooted in a philosophy of collaboration. By working together with state agencies, nonprofit partners, and community leaders, TVN has built a supportive ecosystem that ensures veterans and their families can access the opportunities and benefits they need to thrive. 

"As a veteran, I've experienced firsthand the challenges of transitioning to civilian life, and the resources offered by the Texas Veterans Network have been invaluable," said Lakeydra Houston, a Texas veteran and TVN program beneficiary. "I am beyond grateful for the support and connections I've received through TVN. It's more than just services—it's a community that truly cares about veterans and their families." 

With 70,000 veterans and counting now connected to life-changing resources, the Texas Veterans Network continues to pave the way for a brighter future for Texas veterans.
