About Us
Healthy Futures of Texas envisions a Texas where all teens reach their full potential.
To build this reality, teens need access to medically and scientifically accurate sex education, access to affordable contraception and healthcare, and the agency to act on their decisions.
We provide tools for young people to make informed decisions regarding their reproductive health and establish healthy relationships. Now, more than ever, prevention is critical. Teens and parents need access to information and resources to make the best choices for themselves.
Healthy Futures Can't Wait.
Perhaps you know us by our previous name, Ntarupt, the North Texas Alliance to Reduce Unintended Pregnancy in Teens. In August 2022, we merged with Austin based Texas Campaign to Prevent Teen Pregnancy, and San Antonio based Healthy Futures of Texas under the name Healthy Futures of Texas. We are comprised of 50 professionals with expertise in health education, healthcare delivery, continuing education for youth-serving professionals, policy and research. Our team members are based in Dallas, Austin, San Antonio, Houston, and the Rio Grande Valley.
While we are now statewide, we maintain a strong local presence with community based and community informed services throughout North Texas.
The mission of Healthy Futures of Texas is to improve the well-being of young Texans through access to sexual health education, contraception, and resources.
Dallas' teen birth rate exceeds the national rate by 82%.
Your support will help expand our impact through the following initiatives:
- Youth Education: We provide age appropriate, medically accurate sex education both in school settings and through collaborations with community based partner organizations.
- Parent Education: We know having "the talk" can be just as awkward for parents as it is for their kids. We also believe it shouldn't happen just once. Healthy Futures gives parents and caregivers the information and communication skills to become the trusted and knowledgeable adult their children need them to be. Your NTGD gift helps ensure familes can Talk About It as often as needed.
