About the Texas HIV Syndicate
The Texas HIV Syndicate serves as the statewide HIV/STD community planning group for Texas.
Syndicate members make policy, system, and practice recommendations from broad recommendations in the Texas HIV Plan and related planning documents. They also create tools to help regional stakeholders address HIV and other STDs with evidence-based strategies tailored to meet regional needs.
The Syndicate advises DSHS staff and helps Texas maintain an inclusive and participatory planning process for the delivery of prevention and care services.
