		<head>Agency History</head> 
		<p>On February 27, 1951, Texas Governor Allan Shivers appointed a
		  Statewide Committee on Problems of Alcoholism, which he charged with making
a
		  study and submitting recommendations to deal with alcoholism as a disease.
As
		  an outgrowth of this Statewide Committee, the Texas Committee on
Alcoholism,
		  Incorporated, was chartered on October 4, 1951 as a non-profit scientific,
		  charitable and educational corporation; governed by a board of 26
directors, it
		  was designed to help implement the plan requested by the Governor. Its
first
		  President, Joe C. Carrington, became the first chairman of the Texas
Commission
		  on Alcoholism (later the Texas Commission on Alcohol and Drug Abuse) in
1953,
		  and several other members of the corporation became Commissioners.</p>
