Lone Star Veterans Association

The vision of the Lone Star Veterans Association is to prevent veteran unemployment, substance abuse, family challenges, homelessness, crime, and suicide by coordinating direct and innovative programs. The Lone Star Veterans Association is dedicated to creating a community where service members coming out of the military can make a successful transition to civilian life. Our mission is to prevent veteran unemployment, depression, isolation, homelessness, substance abuse, and worst of all, suicide. We are a dedicated team of veterans that have served in combat and are now serving in Texas, to improve the lives of veterans and their families. We do this through camaraderie, peer mentoring, career assistance, community service, transition assistance, athletic engagement, family events, veteran advocacy, and mental health awareness and resources.

We have served around the world and now we are serving here in Texas to make sure that our brothers and sisters are not left behind.

The Lone Star Veterans Association was started by just a handful of dedicated volunteers in the spring of 2009 to become an online and physical network of veterans who served after September 11, 2001, in Operations Enduring, Iraqi Freedom & New Dawn (OEF/OIF/OND) in the Houston area.

We have since grown into the largest OEF/OIF veterans organization in the State of Texas. We have established programs that are nationally recognized and have changed the lives of hundreds of veterans and their families in Texas.
