Dixon Center for Military and Veterans Services recently visited Easter Seals Greater Houston and their fifteen Texas Veterans + Family Alliance (TV+FA) Grant Program partners.
During our visit, Colonel (Ret.) Duncan Milne and Colonel (Ret.)

Dixon Center and our partners in southeastern Texas are creating holistic solutions to the evolving needs of veterans and their families.
The TV+FA Grant Program was created to improve the quality of life of Texas veterans and their families. Their aim is to expand the availability of, increase access to, and enhance delivery of mental health services and treatments.
