In the summer of 2008, an update to the 2006 needs assessment was conducted. This update is composed of a focus group and key informant interviews and covers people living in the Bryan - College Station, Concho Plateau, Temple - Killeen, and Waco HSDAs.

The focus of the assessment is to learn the factors that get people in to and help them stay in medical care. Participants were recruited based on having been considered out of care at some point, or having dropped out of care at any point.
