Our Vision - Texans with Asthma Will Realize Optimal Health and Quality of Life


Welcome to the home of the Asthma Coalition of Texas. We invite you to take a look around, make yourself at home and feel free to send us feedback on our new home. We look forward to hearing from you!
 
In 2006 in the state of Texas, the inpatient hospitalization charges associated with asthma totaled over $391 million. That is a staggering rate of over $12 per second. Most of these hospitalizations were preventable with proper asthma management.

Formation of Local Coalition Advisory Board:
The Asthma Coalition of Texas recently organized a local coalition advisory board. Representatives from all the local asthma coalitions have been asked to participate. The purpose of this board will be to bridge communication gaps across, share best practices, and network.
