Amazing things are happening in Texas, y’all! We don’t have to go beyond state borders to find fantastic examples of best practices, lots of innovative service delivery, and novel ideas.
“Best of Texas” brings local experts together to share their wisdom and experience – and maybe help us all avoid a few pitfalls along the way.
