Governor's Committee on People with Disabilities records, 1984-2001, undated, bulk 1995-2000.

The primary function of the Governor's Committee on People with Disabilities (GCPD) is to further opportunities for people with disabilities in the state of Texas. Types of records in this group include correspondence, memoranda, minutes, agenda, meeting files, and related materials that document the Governor's Committee on People with Disabilities, especially during Governor George W. Bush's term in office. Dates range from 1984 to 2001 and undated with the bulk of records dating from 1995 to 2000. The records of the Texas Governor's Committee on People with Disabilities are divided into two series: "Correspondence" and Meeting files." "Correspondence" is composed of correspondence, attachments, clippings, and related printed materials, 1989 to 2000 and undated. Correspondence passes between committee members, the Governor's staff, state agencies, state and local officials, federal organizations, businesses, and the general public. Issues include topics pertaining to the Governor's charges (as set forth in Senate Bill 381 in 1991), compliance with the ADA, constituents' health concerns, and similar areas. "Meeting files" comprises a small amount of paper copies of minutes, agenda, and related material, 1984-1991, and 82 audio cassettes, 1995-2000. All of the paper documents pre-date Governor Bush's tenure in office. However, the audiotapes date from his terms of office and include records of committee and subcommittee meetings.
