Strengthening the health system for 11 million Texans We can achieve a stronger and healthier Texas, and transform the health our communities, by not just filling the gaps, but closing them. We are working together with nonprofit organizations, health departments, people of faith, philanthropic institutions, and community members to create a health system that ensures that Texans not only receive quality medical care, but that the places they live and work enable them to get and stay healthy. EHF was established through the 2013 transfer of the St. Luke’s Episcopal Health System by the Episcopal Diocese of Texas to Catholic Health Initiatives. The Foundation is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit corporation that operates as a supporting organization of the Episcopal Diocese of Texas pursuant to Section 509(a)(3)(B)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code.
