The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston (UTHSCH) Border Projects are serving a major segment of the Texas population that would otherwise not have access to such services. The overall impact of this initiative is a health care delivery system that is exceeding the initial goals of serving the underserved population along the Texas-Mexico Border. However, there are still many unmet needs due to a Border population that is growing faster than any other region in the nation. The UTHSCH Texas-Mexico Border Coordinator's Office provides daily management of the projects and serves as liaison among UTHSCH, UT System Administration and other relevant persons and agencies located along the Texas-Mexico Border who are affiliated with the Projects. Following are examples of the projects in health care education, services and research for the Border community.
