About Us

The South Texans’ Property Rights Association (STPRA) was formed in 2006 and brings the power of information and rational discourse to many of the issues that face our region. We are an educational resource for our members and the general public and serve as a catalyst for finding solutions to some of the important challenges that exist for South Texas property owners and managers.

We disseminate information through a variety of means. Besides using electronic and printed media, we sponsor forums, seminars, conferences and other types of meetings to facilitate the exchange of facts and ideas and appear before Congressional, legislative, and administrative bodies.

The STPRA is governed by its members and board of directors. STPRA’s Executive Director is Susan Durham of Brooks and Jim Wells Counties, Texas. Organizational and public policy support is provided by Robert Howard, STPRA Consultant of Austin. We operate with charitable tax, tax-exempt contributions. For further information, see the Membership Page and click here to see our IRS Determination Letter.

Board of Directors

The STPRA Board of Directors and staff are comprised of South Texas landowners who desire  to see our region remain strong and continue to grow. The board and staff meet four times a year to discuss and resolve issues and plan future actions concerning the positions of the organization.
