2006-2007 Advisory Board

Our advisory board members are outstanding professionals from the 20 counties of the Texas Panhandle. They are rural community leaders, educators, and health care providers from a variety of disciplines. Our volunteer board members provide us with guidance and vision based on their professional experiences. Collectively, they become a valuable resource for the Panhandle AHEC to rely upon. And we truly appreciate their time, participation, and leadership.
