Military Veteran Peer Network (MVPN)
Hill Country MHDD Centers offers support to veterans in our community in several ways.
The Military Veteran Peer Network is a Peer-to-Peer based program developed to train Veteran Volunteers across our service area to build support networks within their community. Veteran Volunteers are trained to facilitate group activities, while building camaraderie, trust, and community support through resource identification/linkage, and community engagement.
If you would like to volunteer, or have questions please contact our Veteran Peer Coordinator at (512) 392-7155 or (737) 221-1494.
Additionally, helpful information on benefits and services earned through your military service may be found at The Texas Veterans Portal.
