🎉 New Look, Same Mission! 🎉

We’re proud to introduce the new logo of the Texas Public Health Association — a modern emblem that reflects who we are, where we serve, and where we’re going.

The bold outline of Texas, the rising arc, and the centered star symbolize our commitment to public health across every corner of our state, and the continued journey forward together.

As we celebrate over 100 years of service and impact, this new logo honors our legacy while embracing the future of public health in Texas.

💙 Thanks for growing with us.
