VETERAN REFERRAL COORDINATION CENTER

Connecting veterans and their families to local resources

The Texas Panhandle War Memorial is proud to partner with Combined Arms to provide excellent service referrals for veterans and their families. The mission of the War Memorial is to help veterans and their families by assessing veteran and family member needs and finding appropriate service providers to meet those needs. As a Combined Arms Community Leader, the War Memorial has access to the vast array of services that fall under the umbrella of Combined Arms.

Combined Arms is a not-for-profit agency supported by the Texas Veterans Network and Texas Veterans Commission, and numerous veteran and corporate sponsors. Combined Arms is a backbone organization focusing on bringing organizations together by providing the technology needed to refer veterans and their family members to appropriate services, ensuring no one falls through the cracks. This is a collaborative effort across Texas.

Whatever your need – employment, housing, financial assistance, reintegration, transportation, counseling, or general information – The War Memorial and Combined Arms will find the right provider for you. This service is free; you have earned it. Some benefits are available to your family. Our navigators are trained to know the resource providers in our community and can connect them with you. We will follow up and ensure that you and the resource connect, and your needs are being met.

If you are a veteran, come by and check us out. If you are the family member of a veteran, or friend of a veteran who might benefit from our services, come by and let us tell you generally what services are available. You can encourage your veteran to come visit with us and then we can talk specifics.

Benefits change and improve over time. Qualifications change and are broader over time. Services improve and expand over time. If it has been a while since you inquired about veteran benefits, come see us for an update.​

Our Veteran Referral Coordination Center is in the Texas Panhandle War Memorial, 4111 S. Georgia, 350-8387 (350-VETS). We are available Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

SMALL BUSINESS RESOURCES

Veterans own 1 out of 10 businesses in the United States. This speaks to the fact that their unique experience and perspective gives them the ideal skill set needed to successfully take on the challenges of entrepreneurship. Veterans are often able to demonstrate an inspiring style of leadership that is characterized by selflessness, balanced with the discipline to strive for continued growth and progress, and perfectly equipped to remain effective when facing the greatest of setbacks. Most of all, though every entrepreneur will have a different journey, sacrifice will undoubtedly be a part of the success story.
