our principles
We stay committed to these values:

- Ensuring Texas has a strong provider network with the capacity to serve all women in need of preventive health services; and
- Supporting innovative new healthcare policies that benefit the health of Texas’ women and families.
We take action for the health and well-being of Texas women.
