North Texas Community Health Coalition

The North Texas Community Health Coalition (NTCHC) brings together multisector community organization leaders who are committed to improving the health of the North Texas community, particularly those that are medically underserved and experience health disparities.

What we do and how we benefit

The NTCHC fosters discussions about community health needs and challenges, showcasing community organizations, featuring insights from researchers, and helping to inform UT Southwestern’s clinical and translational research priorities. Additionally, the NTCHC breaks down silos and acts as a central hub, connecting organizations to one another’s resources, programs and events.
