All children need children’s hospitals
The Children’s Hospital Association of Texas (CHAT) is an organization of regional not for profit children’s hospitals in Texas. CHAT’s mission is to advance pediatric health care services for the benefit of children in Texas.
To further its mission, CHAT works to inform and educate the public and state decision makers about issues in pediatric health care. To recognize the leadership of the late Senator Lloyd Bentsen in child health, CHAT supports occasional research reports by public policy students at the LBJ School of Public Affairs on selected pediatric health care issues.
The research and opinions expressed in the reports are those of the authors and are made available by CHAT to further the discussion and understanding of child health public policy issues. The reports do not represent an official statement or position of the CHAT Board or membership.
