The mission of USGBC Texas is to transform the way buildings and communities are designed, built, and operated to improve the quality of life for all Texans. USGBC Texas Chapter - The U.S. Green Building Council and its community are changing the way buildings and communities are designed, built, and operated. The U.S. Green Building Council Texas is a community-benefit 501c3 nonprofit committed to ensuring a better built environment for current and future generations of Texans. We are uniquely focused on uniting all stakeholders involved in the development, design, construction, operation and use of the built infrastructure to achieve equitable practices and policies that are economically, environmentally, and socially sustainable. The Chapter advocates for sound policies and wise use of our natural resources, raises awareness of the importance of integrated design and construction practices, provides education opportunities, and facilitates collaboration between everyone involved.
