2024 Impact Report
Embracing Change, Preserving Purpose
For 84 years, we have supported our vision for all Texans to thrive in communities that promote mental health and well-being. The places where people live, learn, work, play, and pray have an impact on improving mental health. It is our mission to transform how communities promote mental health in everyday life.
This report will give you a glimpse into the last two years in the life of Texas’s premier mental health funder, as well as a look at a few of the dynamic individuals and organizations who have contributed to our success.
All numbers on the report are from the biennium of September 2022 – August 2024.
