Bring the story of your community to Capitol Hill
NRHA’s 35th Rural Health Policy Institute is your chance to guide the future of rural health policy with NRHA leadership and advocate for issues you care about with new and returning members of Congress and the administration Feb. 13-15.
“Now, more than ever before, is our time to convince Congress that rural heath isn’t just a headline,” says NRHA chief policy officer Carrie Cochran-McClain. “Rural health is a movement. It’s time for Capitol Hill to hear your voice.”
You’ll have the chance to:
- Develop rapport with your federal elected officials and staff
- Understand the importance and successes of NRHA’s advocacy
- Learn the new ways NRHA is advancing the association’s priorities
- Participate in NRHA’s Rural Health Disparities Summit
- Connect with your Congressional delegation to educate them on rural health policy priorities
We need your voice at our most important rural health advocacy event yet. Let’s put our ideas in motion and speak directly with our elected officials to advocate for legislation and policies that protect rural patients, providers, and their communities.
