HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES COMMISSION


Jennifer Shuford named commissioner of Texas public health agency

The infectious disease doctor has been at the helm of the department in an interim capacity since the fall, replacing longtime commissioner Dr. John Hellerstedt following his retirement. Shuford has been at the agency since 2017.

State leaders wonโ€™t commit to specifics about how much they might invest in childrenโ€™s mental health

As public debate intensifies over how the state will divvy up billions in new money, community groups that treat children for mental illness fear theyโ€™re not a priority.

State agencies push for better worker pay as critical staffing crunch hits Texas government

Texas agencies say they are being hammered by a historic staffing crisis, particularly when it comes to those in the trenches serving the stateโ€™s most vulnerable populations.

Top Texas health official who led response to coronavirus pandemic is retiring

Dr. John Hellerstedt, who has led the Texas Department of State Health Services since 2016, will retire at the end of the month. Dr. Jennifer Shuford, the chief state epidemiologist, has been named his interim replacement.

Texas was building a program to find troubled students and prevent school shootings. It hadnโ€™t reached Uvalde yet.

Created in 2019, the Texas Child Mental Health Care Consortium identifies distressed students and refers them to mental health services.

Baby formula shortage is making low-income mothers struggle to pay for a product usually covered by the state

The stateโ€™s poorest mothers are paying hundreds of dollars out of pocket when they find baby formula because they say they canโ€™t risk waiting for the exact brand and size container covered by Texasโ€™ Women, Infant and Children program.

Texas children and childrenโ€™s hospitals are under siege from two viruses: RSV and COVID-19

More children are being treated in Texas hospitals for COVID-19 than ever before, and an unseasonable outbreak of respiratory syncytial virus is adding to the stress on childrenโ€™s hospitals.

Biden administration threatens to sue after Texas officials say theyโ€™ll yank licenses from facilities housing unaccompanied migrant children

A federal attorney claims an order from Gov. Greg Abbott violates the U.S. Constitutionโ€™s Supremacy Clause and said legal action could follow if the state carries through with plans to pull licenses from the federally contracted facilities.

Texas officials knew foster children were illegally placed in an unsafe shelter. It didnโ€™t end until a whistleblower came forward.

Texas state officials, including those in Gov. Greg Abbottโ€™s office, knew for months that foster children were being illegally housed in an emergency shelter cited hundreds of times for dangerous conditions โ€” but failed to report the violation to court-appointed watchdogs tasked with monitoring the stateโ€™s foster care system, according to court records.
