Texas Funds Panhandle Veterans | Lubbock News

Texas is pouring serious cash into veteran support—Governor Abbott just approved over $1 million in grants for the Panhandle region, helping 836 vets through five key organizations. Part of the statewide “Grants Across Texas Tour,” this funding targets real needs: housing, financial aid, legal help, and more. Cornerstone gets $600K for housing and cash aid, Salvation Army and Lubbock MHMR each get $200K for financials, Potter County funds a Veterans Treatment Court, and Lubbock County supports pro bono legal services. This isn’t new—it’s part of a $400M+ statewide effort since 2009, with nearly $41M approved in May alone to assist over 125K veterans and families. Need help? The Texas Veterans Commission has a directory to find local support. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
