The Texas Holocaust and Genocide Commission (THGC) is a state commission that was established to bring awareness of the Holocaust and other genocides to Texas students, educators, and the general public by ensuring availability of resources, and in doing so, imbue in individuals a sense of responsibility to uphold human value and inspire citizens in the prevention of future atrocities.
