Who We Are
As a faith-based, nonprofit health care system, we believe it is our social responsibility to improve the welfare of society through community outreach, health education and access to care. The Community Affairs department at Texas Health Resources provides community relations support across our 16-county service area through strategic giving, employee volunteerism and community collaborations.
  • Committed to Community

    To thrive, Texas Health must connect and build strong relationships with a number of stakeholders who affect how we deliver care—from physicians to public health agencies, to policymakers and a number of health care focused nonprofits. Through ongoing dialogue, we improve our understanding of trends affecting health outcomes, service delivery results and costs of care.

  • Community Collaboration

    Texas Health actively participates in more than 25 local, state and national health care industry associations, including the American Hospital Association, Texas Hospital Association, Dallas-Fort Worth Business Group on Health and the Dallas-Fort Worth Hospital Council. We are also actively involved with several chambers of commerce, diversity councils and health care collaborations throughout North Texas.
