Testimonials
“One key theme from all of the sessions is that everybody has a role in promoting health… This Summit is a wonderful opportunity to bring people together from around the state from various sectors to not only think about health more comprehensively but also to share stories and share ideas. It’s a blend of the scientific evidence, the practical application of that work, and the various sector perspectives. It’s a really unique opportunity. Next year people need to come and be a part of it and see how they fit into this overall change for a healthier Texas.”

Community, schools, healthcare, all the different areas that are extremely important to make a difference in. In order to have culture change you have to have everybody involved.”

Testimonials
“We’re really excited to be a part of this initiative. I love the diverse group of stakeholders. I think it’s so important to bring folks from worksites and schools and communities together. Sometimes they end up in separate tracks, but sometimes they have an opportunity to network and learn from each other.”
