Advocating for Texas Health Centers

The Texas Association of Community Health Centers (TACHC) collaborates with state agencies, legislators, and other stakeholders to ensure health centers remain vital in Texas' health care delivery system and operate efficiently within the funding and regulatory environment. During the state's biennial legislative session, TACHC works with legislative offices and state agency staff to advocate for the health center legislative agenda and keeps centers informed on relevant legislation. Additionally, TACHC monitors the rulemaking process at state health agencies and updates health centers on operational changes. TACHC also participates in several statewide coalitions focused on improving access to care for all Texans.

Legislative

Ensuring every Texan has equal access to health care.

Regulatory

Breaking down unfair barriers in Texas faced by the underserved.
