Care Coordination & Case Management

We understand that as a veteran you may struggle to transition to civilian life, and we strive to empower all of our veterans to overcome obstacles and live happily. You have given us the freedoms we have today through your service, so the least we can do is provide a boost for you in return.
Health & Wellness Programming
Recreation and peer support go a long way toward enhancing quality of life and we are here to offer you our support. Our services are designed to promote and encourage camaraderie and connection, along with an overall sense of well-being.

We invite you to join us and share some time with others who can relate to your experiences. By participating in shared activities, lifelong friendships offering can be forged.
Transportation
Our veterans have given so much in service of their country, and we’re always jumping at opportunities to give back. One area that constantly presents a need for assistance is transportation. Many veterans have disabilities and other factors that prevent them from traveling easily, so we’re doing what we can to offer transportation services that make their lives easier.
In The News
Farm Aid | Platoon Pastures Provides Peace to Veterans
After leaving the U.S. Marine Corps in 2006, Aziz, who was deployed to Iraq, struggled with his mental health and would be ultimately diagnosed with PTSD. “My life began to crumble,” the Frederick resident says. He had difficulty controlling his anger and he drank too much. Holding a job was tough and his personal life suffered. “I jumped from relationship to relationship,” he says.
For the past year and a half, however, Aziz has been sober and slowly beginning to reclaim his life—inspired, he says, by his 3-year-old son, Colton, and helped by therapy. Now, when the world seems too much, instead of picking up a drink or lashing out, he can choose a place of peace at Platoon Pastures. “It is healing for me,” says Aziz.
The Faces of 22
As part of the City of Southlake’s 2026 Memorial Day observances, residents and visitors are invited to experience The Faces of 22, a powerful art exhibit honoring veterans and raising awareness about veteran suicide prevention.
The exhibit, on loan from Platoon 22 in Frederick, Maryland, will be displayed in Town Hall from May 18–26 during regular business hours. Created by an artist who has chosen to remain anonymous, the exhibit uses compelling visual art and storytelling to encourage reflection on the lasting impact of military service on veterans, their families, and their communities.
