Misson Statement

Our mission is to bring the Music, Education, and Culture of the Tejano movement to the forefront in Houston and beyond.  Our vision is to educate the younger generations on the history, culture, and beauty of Tejano music . All projects and efforts of this organization will always be pursued with unity and a positive agenda.

=========================================

The vision of the coalition is to introduce to our young children, the music, the culture, and the legacy of the Tejano culture. We hope that by reaching out to the young children, teens, and young adults we can instill what Tejano music is and teach them the roots of Tejano music. 
The Houston Tejano Music Coalition intends to reach out to as many students and get them information on how to read into resources that can provide them more information on Tejano music.
