Relating to establishing the Texas Commission for Boys and Men.
HB 3784 creates the Texas Commission for Boys and Men to address disparities in well-being affecting boys and male youth across education, workforce participation, family stability, health, and criminal justice involvement. The commission will conduct a systematic study to identify specific needs in these areas, assess state laws that may negatively impact men's success, and make policy recommendations. It will be composed of 11 members appointed by the governor, lieutenant governor, and House speaker, with expertise in relevant fields like education or criminal justice. The bill directly affects all boys and men in Texas by establishing a formal process to evaluate and improve policies impacting their well-being.
