Texas Faculty Association

The Texas Faculty Association (TFA) is a non-profit organization formed in 1985 to protect the rights of higher education faculty and support staff.

TFA is dedicated to academic freedom, collegiality across all faculty ranks, faculty participation in governance, and continued improvement of teaching, scholarship and creativity in every college, university and post-secondary institution in Texas. ​Affiliated with the Texas State Teachers Association and the National Education Association, TFA has the resources and skills to assist college and university employees whenever problems arise. In addition to a strong, collective voice in the legislature, TFA offers its members access to Member Advocates who can assist with employment related concerns, as well as top-notch professional liability coverage through NEA’s Educators Employment Liability Program.
