We strive to incorporate the width and depth of Texans’ experiences in health policy. Healthier Texas pushes for changes in health using community members’ voices and feedback as its inspiration. Starting with the smallest unit – the individual Texan – Healthier Texas encourageshealth champions to build healthier habits that drive community-based decision making, motivating campaigns and advocacy, all in the name of building a healthier Texas.
