Veterans Assistance Committee

The Veterans Assistance Committee is comprised of current and former military members and people interested in military and veterans law issues. Our mission is to be a resource for TCDLA members who represent servicemembers or veterans. Reach out to us if you have any questions about the military criminal justice system (courts-martial), administrative separations, or issues unique to those who serve. Our annual event is the day-long Veterans Justice Clinic in February, with presentations on PTSD/TBI, VA issues, how Veterans Treatment Courts work in Texas, and more.

The mission of TCDLA’s social media committee is to promote TCDLA’s cause through social media platforms. The Committee utilizes different social media channels to provide TCDLA members and non-members with greater access to current TCDLA news and events. Our efforts will keep the public and our members up to date on all things TCDLA.
