Texas-headquartered 501(c)(3) (EIN 86-1336741) operates the most complete machine-queryable directory of veteran-serving resources in its home state — VA hospitals, Vet Centers, CVSOs, and 12 city-level subsections.
THE WOODLANDS, TEXAS — May 4, 2026 —Wounded Warriors (Texas 501(c)(3), EIN 86-1336741, IRS ruling year 2021) today announced that its open-data veteran-resource directory now indexes 8,247 verified veteran-serving resources across Texas, making it the largest state-level open directory in the organization's 56-jurisdiction footprint. The organization is headquartered at 1790 Hughes Landing Blvd Ste 400, The Woodlands TX 77380.
Texas hosts approximately 1.6 million U.S. military veterans — the second-largest state veteran population after California. Wounded Warriors' Texas resources include 14 VA Medical Centers, 200+ Community-Based Outpatient Clinics, 32 Vet Centers, 254 County Veterans Service Officers (one per Texas county, free state-employed claim help), and thousands of mental-health, housing, employment, and benefits providers — every record geocoded to FIPS-tract precision (99.9% coverage) and joined with U.S. Census ACS demographic data.
The state-level landing page at warriorsfund.org/state/texas surfaces top cities by resource density (Houston: 323 resources, San Antonio: 117, Dallas: 158, Austin), six topic-specific subpages (Mental Health, Housing, Employment, Healthcare, Claims Help, Crisis Support), and direct cross-links to neighboring states (Arkansas, Louisiana, New Mexico, Oklahoma) so Texas-bordering veterans can find the closest resource regardless of state lines.
Wounded Warriors operates five direct-aid programs serving Texas veterans: Emergency Financial Aid, HRT Sponsorships, Care Packages for Hospitalized Veterans, Housing Down-Payment Assistance, and Corporate Partnerships. The organization holds the Candid 2026 Platinum Seal of Transparency.
Texas donors recommending grants from donor-advised-fund (DAF) portals should search EIN 86-1336741 in any DAF sponsor (Fidelity Charitable, Schwab Charitable, Vanguard Charitable, NPT).

Texas has more County Veterans Service Officers than any other state — one per county, all free, all state-employed. The data is public, but the discoverability has been broken: a veteran in Hidalgo County typing "find a CVSO" into Google has historically gotten national PDFs, not the actual person at the courthouse who can file their disability claim today. Indexing all 254 with their actual current contact info is the kind of open-data work nobody else in this sector is doing.Dillon Parkes, Founder & Executive Director, Wounded Warriors
