The Department of State Health Services supervises and funds the Texas Alliance of the Partnership for a Drug-Free America. The Texas Partnership is an alliance of the Partnership for a Drug-Free America, a nonprofit organization that unites parents, renowned scientists and communications professionals to help families raise healthy children. DSHS’ involvement and funding make the Texas Partnership unique.
DSHS has used the Texas Partnership to generate millions of dollars in advertising and media exposure to encourage Texas youths to make wise choices about alcohol and other drugs. The Texas Partnership reviews, localizes and distributes public service announcements provided by the national organization to newspapers and television and radio stations statewide. The Texas Partnership also generates creative work tailored to address concerns identified by DSHS. The Texas Partnership has designed book covers and posters that were distributed to Texas students, set up kiosks with anti-drug information in malls and developed a billboard campaign targeting marijuana use to name a few. In addition, the Texas Partnership has won numerous national awards for its work.
