HHS Goals

Doctor holding the hand of a patient in a hospital bedAs agency representatives, we work in partnership with our co-workers, lawmakers, clients, service providers, and the public to continually improve the quality of our service.

Our goals are to:

  • Enable the aging and people with disabilities to live as independently as possible for as long as possible
  • Protect public health and promote the overall physical and mental health of Texans
  • Enable low-income individuals and clients of family violence, refugee, and vocational rehabilitation programs to achieve self-sufficiency for themselves and their families
  • Ensure safety and protection from abuse, neglect, or exploitation of children and adults

This overview will show you how we will achieve these goals.
