The Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) has published the 2024 Children’s Behavioral Health Strategic Plan (PDF).

The five-year plan is intended to foster an environment in which Texas children and their caregivers, based on identified need, have access to compassionate, comprehensive, and innovative behavioral health care, that will help develop their resilience and enable them to thrive emotionally, mentally, and socially.

The plan was developed by the Texas Statewide Behavioral Health Coordinating Council’s Children’s Behavioral Health Strategic Plan Subcommittee and is specific to the behavioral health of children and youth.
