House Bill 123 sets new safety and emergency rules for youth camps in Texas. Camps must have evacuation plans, warning systems that work without the internet, flotation devices, and trained staff. These rules help keep young people safe during emergencies like floods, fires, and severe weather. When we show up together, our community becomes more connected, more resilient, and more powerful.
