Bailey County Veterans Page: Outside Resources, No Officer Named; TexVet Names Judy Coffman

What the county posts. Bailey County's Veterans page names no officer, office or hours. It links: Meals for Vets, a program of Honor Veterans Now for low-income veterans under 60 who are left out of other meal programs (830-992-3375 or 800-676-1389, mealsforvets.org), with its brochure; Make the Connection (maketheconnection.net) for mental health; the VA Dental Insurance Program; the Ussery-Roan Texas State Veterans Home; and a Veterans Resource Center flyer for general assistance - interview clothes, food vouchers, rides, utility, rent and mortgage payments, identity documents and fuel for veterans, family members and surviving spouses - naming Melanie Terrell, Veteran Navigator, in Amarillo (cell 806-420-9801, office 806-342-2546). How the county funds it. The FY 2026-2027 adopted budget (October 1, 2026 to September 30, 2027, adopted September 8, 2026) has no veterans department or line among its General Fund departments, which run from the County Judge, County Clerk and courts to the jail, coliseum, EMS, probation, road precincts, health services and aging, library and extension service. A county of under 200,000 people is not required to keep an officer (Government Code 434.032; see the Texas entry). TexVet. TexVet's county list names Judy Coffman for Bailey, at (806) 272-3647, [email protected] - an address on the county's own e-mail domain. No county page, budget line or minutes read names her or gives the office's hours, so call first. Where no officer is available, the Texas Veterans Commission's claims counselors help any veteran free (see the Texas entry). County contacts.
