Texas Public Policy Foundation Meeting Virtual or in Person

October 14 @ 11:30 am - 1:00 pm CDT

Strong families make a strong, healthy nation. Studies show that children raised in a stable environment with a traditional family structure are more likely to prosper as adults. That is why policies that promote marriage, ease the financial burden on families raising children, and strengthen the nuclear family are so important to future generations.

Join us for a panel discussion on the cultural and economic challenges facing modern families. Experts will discuss various policy proposals to incentivize marriage and family formation, as well as protect families from undue government intrusion. Don’t miss this insightful dialogue on how sound public policy can fortify families and, in turn, create a more resilient and flourishing country.

Complimentary lunch will be provided for in-person attendees, and you are also welcome to register for a livestream ticket and tune in online.
