Who We Are
Founded in 1965 as a not-for-profit corporation, the 501(c)(3) organization Texas Central Bleeding Disorders (TCBD) is over 60 years strong. TCBD was formed to promote opportunities for improving the quality of life for all affected by hemophilia and related bleeding and clotting disorders so each can fulfill their individual potential.
What We Do
TCBD is committed to provide and support programs of research; patient, public and professional education; and patient, family and community services. Public and private contributions support these activities.
Our Mission
Founded in 1965, Texas Central Bleeding Disorders (TexCen) is a community-based nonprofit 501(c)(3) dedicated to advocacy, education, and support for families affected by inheritable bleeding disorders across the northern half of Texas.
Welcome! The TCBD community is made up of a variety of individuals, families, and friends of those who are affected by bleeding disorders. Since our founding in 1965, our region has grown and covers the entire northern half of the state from east to west Texas, over 140 counties.
We offer a variety of programming throughout the year that targets our different community member needs. We invite all to attend these activities and become involved in a community devoted to helping one another. The activities are always fun and educational. They also provide a fantastic opportunity for meeting and learning from others who are affected by a bleeding or clotting disorder.
​
Community membership is free. We’d love to get to know you.
