The Policy Council for Children and Families
The Policy Council for Children and Families works to improve the coordination, quality, efficiency, and outcomes of services provided to children with disabilities and their families through the state's health, education, and human services systems. The council produces a biennial report with recommendations to the Executive Commissioner of HHSC and the Texas Legislature. The council includes family members of children with special health care needs and representatives of the community, faith, business and other organizations.
