OUR PURPOSE

Dixon Center for Military and Veterans Services

There are nearly 11 million organizations across all sectors of American society. If they all include military veterans and their families as employees, students, recipients of services and supports – those touched by military service will thrive. As a nation, we can’t rely on a small number of veteran serving organizations and government. It takes a whole of society approach. The good news is that there is no lack of will on the part of the American public. They want to help but they may not be sure how.

This is where Dixon Center for Military and Veterans Services comes in—serving as a resource hub of influence, ideas, and actions, we are building capacity in our partnered organizations, maximizing their potential to support veterans and their families. This includes:

  • Providing strategic support to people, institutions, organizations, and communities, across the nation, which are committed to improving the lives of veterans and their families.
  • Bringing together people, resources, and expertise to leverage the best outcomes for our partners.
  • Fostering, strengthening, and expanding community-based connections to veterans.
  • Serving as a recognized and visible network and voice for military and veteran services.

We work with organizations, individuals, systems, and movements from all sectors of society – public, private, social, and civic. We provide and coordinate technical assistance/training, resource sharing, and strong leadership for our partners, who, with our ongoing support, share our noble purpose: To make the lives of veterans and their families better.
