Vision: Improve health outcomes and reduce health disparities through investment by the health system in non-medical drivers of health.
Mission: Build a field of practice to advance the integration of NMDOH into health care delivery through research, policy, and practice.
The Texas Consortium was founded in January 2023. The Founding Team brings complementary knowledge and skills to the Consortium from Rice University’s Baker Institute for Public Policy team Elena Marks and Jacquie Klotz and UT Health Houston School of Public Health’s Center for Health Care Data team Dr. Trudy Krause and Dr. Cecilia Ganduglia-Cazaban.
We are building a collaborative platform for learning and knowledge sharing for researchers, policymakers, and practitioners to advance the integration of non-medical interventions into the health care system.
