Message from the Chair
Our Development Board allows us the unique opportunity to provide important guidance for the university. In doing so, we create deeper connections between UTHealth Houston and the communities we serve. Our collective strength empowers UTHealth Houston to uphold our shared mission to educate health science professionals, discover and translate advances in the biomedical and social sciences, and model the best practices in clinical care and public health.
The advocacy and support of leaders like you go a long way toward enhancing initiatives at our schools and inspiring others to participate. Together, we will make a powerful impact as we promote programs that save and improve lives across the region and beyond.
