Lone Star Veterans Association

The Lone Star Veterans Association is dedicated to creating a community where service members coming out of the military can make the successful transition to a 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.

BUILDING THE COMMUNITY OF VETERANS BY STRENGTHENING THEIR CAREERS AND FAMILIES.

Veterans leaving the military face a huge difficulty transitioning to civilian life. Most pronounced is that they lack access to personal and professional networks when they leave the military. While in the military they and their families are part of a unit and a strong support network with clear direction for career paths and family services. We believe that the best service we can provide veterans during thier transition is access to a community of veterans that have already transitioned, who have walked the road they find themselves on presently, and have the time and ability to give back to strengthen their careers and families.

In order to provide that community we have to gather our successful veterans that have already transitioned, that are leading their industries and companies in their careers. We need classmates and friends, mothers and fathers, husbands and wives who are secure in their family lives. We need community building activities that gather our leaders, volunteers, and veterans to connect with one another. The greatest resource that can be provided to veterans is one that connects them with other veterans.

With over a dozen events a month in and around the Greater Houston area there always opportunities to meet other veterans, share stories, be inspired, build your network, and strengthen your career & your family. Check out the events for our different LSVA groups.
