Connections was originally founded to provide shelter for at-risk and homeless youth in Comal County who had nowhere else to turn. What started as a children’s shelter expanded over the years to include a transitional living home for older youth preparing to age out of foster care, low-barrier counseling services, and substance misuse prevention education and programming for school-aged children across more than a dozen south-central Texas counties.

they have requested Snacks to help with the end of summer and back to school for the children and families in their housing. Please bring Individually packaged snacks to the next meeting or feel free to reach out to anyone in the steering committee if unable to make it to the next meeting. We will deliver after August 7.

🚨CALL TO ACTION TODAY!! Call Gov. Abbott to support SB268🚨

Texas Medical Association has made it their # 1 priority to kill SB 268 and has been inundating the Governor’s office with physician calls and emails asking him to veto the bill.
Please email or call Governor Abbot!

email- http://www.votervoice.net/Shares/BAAAAAaZAC6JfAfbP3f7FAA
Please call the Governor’s office between the hours of 8 am and 5pm, and share the following message: (512) 463-2000

“As a nurse practitioner in the State of Texas and a concerned citizen, I respectfully ask that Governor Abbott sign SB 268 into law. SB 268 ensures health practitioners are disciplined by boards with appropriate expertise and jurisdiction, protects against regulatory overreach, and prevents duplicative, costly board investigations. It’s a strong, bipartisan support bill that will provide clear and consistent regulations for health care practitioners across Texas. Thank you for your time and your service to Texans, and for the Governor’s support of nurses and patients!”

🚨Job Alert 🚨

06/05/2025

SB 268, one of TNP's legislative priorities requiring boards to refer complaints to the appropriate licensure board, passed the House and Senate and was sent to Governor Abbott on June 3. The Governor has 20 days to take action on this bill, either signing it, vetoing it, or allowing it to become law without his signature.

Boards disciplining and investigating health care practitioners, like NPs, who they do not license or have jurisdiction over can lend itself to regulatory overreach and duplicative, costly board investigations.

Take two minutes, and contact Governor Abbott today, asking him to allow this critical bill to become law: https://www.votervoice.net/TNP/campaigns/127610/respond
