Each Investment in Care Shapes a Healthier Texas

TTUHSC was founded on a simple yet powerful idea: Every Texan deserves access to quality health care, regardless of where they live. That belief now anchors our vision — a healthier future with access to quality care for every Texan.

As we extend our reach across this great state, we remain firmly rooted in the purpose that has defined us from the start. Quality health care forms the foundation of a strong community. It supports families, attracts employers and gives people confidence that their hometown is a place where they can thrive.

At TTUHSC, we are building the health care workforce Texas needs. About one in four health professionals serving our great state are TTUHSC graduates. Even before graduation, our students are working to strengthen access to care in communities across the western half of Texas through their clinical rotations. We’re continuously developing innovative ways to deliver care, such as our recent collaboration with Texas A&M Health in Fort Davis, which brought primary and mental health services to a region with only one doctor serving 2,000 residents.

These are the stories that define our purpose.

In the process, TTUHSC contributes $2.31 billion annually to the Texas economy, and creates and sustains over 13,500 jobs. These figures represent more than just financial strength — they reflect lives touched, communities supported and opportunities built.

Our story is one of shared purpose. Alumni, donors and community and clinical partners make this work possible. Health and education drive prosperity, and when we invest in both, we invest in Texas.
