Two Hays County veterans programs were presented with grant funding from the Texas Veterans Commission on Friday.
TVC presented “big checks” to 30 organizations from across Central Texas, including the Hays County Veterans Service Office and Hays County Veterans Treatment Court, at a ceremony inside the Hays County Government Center. TVC offers grants in five different categories — general assistance, housing for Texas heroes, veteran mental health grant, veteran treatment courts and veteran county service offices funding. TVC has awarded $234 million in grant funding to nonprofit and local government organizations between 2009 and the current 2022-23 grant cycle.
TVC Commissioner Mary Lopez Dale said everyone is responsible for caring for those who served.
