Which of the following is the accurate expansion of the acronym TDHCA?

• A. Texas Department of Public Health and Community Affairs
• B. Texas Department of Urban Housing and Community Affairs
• C. Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs
• D. Texas Department of Housing and Rural Development

Answer: (C)

TDHCA stands for Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs. The name shows a Texas state department dedicated to housing programs and community development, so the initials map directly: Texas (T), Department (D), Housing (H), and Community Affairs (CA). This expansion matches the agency’s official title. The other options shift the focus or geography in a way that doesn’t align with the actual name. Replacing Housing with Public Health or Urban, or using Rural Development, points to different agencies or functions rather than the Texas department specifically titled Housing and Community Affairs.
