The Public Welfare Act of 1939 (Senate Bill 36, 46th Legislature,
Regular Session) created the Texas Department of Public Welfare. Previously,
the Child Welfare Division of the Board of Control (established in 1931 but not
funded until 1935), the Texas Relief Commission (1933-1934, later part of the
Board of Control, 1934-1939), and the Old Age Assistance Commission (1936-1939)
had performed parts of the new agency's functions. The Department of Public
Welfare (DPW) became the Department of Human Resources (DHR) in 1977 (Senate
Bill 1325, 65th Legislature, Regular Session), and the Department of Human
Services (DHS) in 1985 (Senate Bill 351, 69th Legislature, Regular Session).
The department currently has the following broad functions. It
administers state and federal programs serving low-income families with
children, and elderly or disabled persons, including the following: temporary
financial assistance for basic family needs; nutritional assistance; access to
health care; nursing home and community-based care. It regulates long-term care
facilities. It administers programs for survivors of family violence and
victims of natural disasters.
More specifically, a variety of programs have been administered by DHS
over the years, including the following examples.
Financial assistance programs (utilizing both federal and state
funding sources) have included the following: Temporary Assistance for Needy
Families (TANF), which is the current focus for DHS; Aid to Families with
Dependent Children (AFDC); Old Age Assistance (OAA); Aid to the Permanently and
Totally Disabled (APTD); Aid to the Blind and Disabled (ABD); Food Stamp
Program; Commodity Distribution Program; several Refugee Programs (the Office
of Immigration and Refugee Affairs was transferred from the Governor's office
in 1995); Repatriation of U.S. Citizens Program; Low-Income Home Energy
Assistance Program (HEAP), and Temporary Emergency Relief Program (TERP)
(transferred to the Department of Housing and Community Affairs in September
1992); and Disaster Assistance.
Medical assistance is (or has been) provided through the following:
Medicaid, which is financed through a combination of federal and state funding,
and is state-administered; purchased health, indigent health, and preventive
health services, like Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnosis, and Treatment
(EPSDT) (these programs were transferred to the Texas Department of Health in
September 1993); and regulation (licensing and certification) of long-term care
facilities (transferred from the Department of Health in September 1993).
Social services include (or have included) the following: Child Care
Program, Job Training Work Experience Program, Refocus Pilot Project,
Employment and Training Program, and the Work Incentive (WIN) Program (all
transferred to the Texas Workforce Commission in June 1996); Child Protective
Services (which includes adoption and foster care), Adult Protective Services,
and Child-Care Licensing (transferred to the newly-created Department of
Protective and Regulatory Services in September 1992); Services for Runaways
and At-Risk Youth Program (transferred to Protective and Regulatory Services in
September 1993); Child Support Enforcement (transferred to the Attorney General
in 1985); and licensing and regulation of nursing home facility administrators
(transferred to DHS in 1997 when the Texas Board of Nursing Facility
Administrators was abolished).
The governing Board of Human Services (previously called Board of
Human Resources and, before that, Board of Public Welfare) is composed of six
members (expanded from three members in 1989), appointed by the governor with
the advice and consent of the senate, for overlapping six-year terms. Board
members must possess demonstrated interest in, and knowledge of, human
services. The members elect a chair. The board appoints the chief
administrative officer, called variously the Executive Director of Public
Welfare, the Commissioner of Public Welfare (beginning in 1941), the
Commissioner of Human Resources, or the Commissioner of Human Services.
Over the years the administrative structure of the Department has
undergone significant and very frequent change. A consistent feature of the
Department, however, has been the division of work between the State offices
(which develop and coordinate programs) and the regional offices (which
actually deliver the services). Texas is currently divided into 10 regions.
As of April 1999, the Department is organized into eleven offices. Six
of them report directly to the Executive Deputy Commissioner: Deputy
Commissioner, Management Information Systems; Deputy Commissioner, Program
Integrity; Associate Commissioner, Long Term Care Regulatory; Deputy
Commissioner, Regional Operations; Deputy Commissioner, Office of Programs; and
Director, Executive Office of Planning, Evaluation, and Project Management.
Four offices report directly to the Commissioner: Chief Financial Officer;
Associate Commissioner, Government Relations; Associate Commissioner, Legal
Services; and Deputy Commissioner, Support Services. One office, Internal
Auditor, reports directly to the Board. The Department employed 15,841.5
full-time equivalent employees in 1999.

State Board of Public Welfare minutes and meeting files,
1939-1977,
5.07 cubic ft.; part of 16 mm microfilm reel
|
| These records include copies of minutes, agenda, memoranda from
the commissioner to board members reporting on agenda items, other
commissioner's reports to the board, registrations and requests to appear
before the board, contracts, agreements, proposals, full presentations,
handbooks, correspondence, resolutions, legal opinions, court documents (such
as briefs and opinions), task force reports, legislation (both state and
federal), and Title XX Comprehensive Annual Services Program Plans. They
comprise copies of the official minutes, agenda, and supporting documents of
meetings of the (Texas) State Board of Public Welfare, dating 1939-1977. The
microfilm copies of minutes dating September 1939-April 1974, and the bound
copies of minutes dating October 1963-April 1974, contain no agenda, and only
occasional supporting documents. The loose (unbound) meeting files dating
February 1970 and August 1971-August 1977 usually contain agenda and supporting
documentation, but often contain no minutes. The minutes themselves summarize
the presentations, discussions and board actions on each agenda item. The
topics of these agenda items cover financial assistance, medical assistance,
and social services programs, as well as legal matters, legislative issues,
planning, organizational changes, budget, personnel--in short, the full range
of the policies and practices of the (Texas) State Department of Public
Welfare, which was the immediate predecessor to the Texas Department of Human
Resources. |

Texas Board of Human Resources minutes and agenda,
1977-1985,
4.71 cubic ft.
|
| These records include copies of minutes, agenda, registrations and
requests to appear before the board, memoranda from the commissioner to board
members reporting on each agenda item, full presentations, transcripts,
proposed budgets, operating plans, manuals and handbooks, correspondence,
executive letters from the commissioner, resolutions, legal opinions, task
force reports, and board action reports. They comprise copies of the official
minutes, agenda, and supporting documents of meetings of the Texas Board of
Human Resources, dating 1977-1985. The minutes themselves summarize the
presentations, discussions and board actions on each agenda item. The topics of
these agenda items cover financial assistance, medical assistance, and social
services programs, as well as rule making, legal matters, legislative issues,
strategic planning, organizational changes, budget, personnel--in short, the
full range of the policies and practices of the Texas Department of Human
Resources, which was the immediate predecessor to the Texas Department of Human
Services. The change in 1985 was purely a name change; the only significant
change in the agency's functions in that year was the transfer of Child Support
Enforcement to the Attorney General. |
