    Texas Hunter Education       Instructors Association was incorporated on April 19, 1995 as a non-profit organization by Volunteer Hunter Education Instructors to work with, support and help improve the Texas Parks & Wildlife Department Hunter Education Program.
 
One of the MAJOR Hunter Education Program activities supported by THEIA is the purchase of incentive awards given out to instructors for their volunteer efforts.

In 1996 THEIA was recognized by the IRS as a tax exempt private foundation under section 501(c) (3). As of January 19th, 2008 we were upgraded to a Public Charity Status 509 (a) (2).
