He assures Houstonians that CHRISTUS Foundation for HealthCare is not part of this move and is staying put in the Bayou City. You may have seen the recent stories about CHRISTUS Health’s plans to consolidate system operations in the Dallas area. I want to clarify that these plans do not include CHRISTUS Foundation for HealthCare or any of our programs in the Houston/Galveston area. CHRISTUS Foundation has cared for Houston’s most vulnerable residents for more than 40 years, and our work to serve our community will continue unchanged.
