In the summer of 2022 the Hogg Foundation teamed up with the Bullock Museum of Texas to contribute to their summer of programming on mental health. In June of 2022, Hogg Foundation executive director Dr. Octavio N. Martinez, Jr., and Dr. Bill Bush, Texas A&M professor of history and author of Circuit Riders for Mental Health: The Hogg Foundation and Twentieth Century Texas, were the featured guests in a webinar presented by the Bullock Museum. Their conversation connects the past and present of mental health, and shows how building an effective, person-centered mental health system in Texas is a project that spans generations.
