Ana Belén Zelaya

Ana Belén Zelaya is a Program Manager for Healthy Futures of Texas, based in Houston, and manages programs that help young people aged 10-24 access sexual health education and reproductive healthcare by providing technical assistance to school districts and health centers in Texas. She is also involved in the development of a Community Health Worker training program focused on maternal and child health, aimed at building a stronger, community-rooted public health workforce, which will launch later in 2026. 
 

Healthy Futures of Texas was founded in 2006 and merged with Ntarupt and the Texas Campaign to Prevent Teen Pregnancy in 2022. As a statewide 501(c)(3) organization, they take a non-partisan approach informed by evidence-based practices to promote positive health outcomes for young people, women, and families. They provide health education for youth and families, training and technical assistance for youth-serving systems, research and data analysis, advocacy for policies aligned with their mission, and public awareness campaigns. Their vision is to ensure that every young Texan has access to the information and resources needed to make their own sexual health decisions.
