Best Practices Survey
 GRHA is surveying communities across the state to compile a database
reflecting best practices we all can use to improve rural health.
Designed with your time in mind, the components of the brief survey
include who is offering the program, what the program goals are, who
the program serves, why it is offered, the impact it has in the
community/state, and staff contact information.
Please click the Best Practices Survey under Quick Links at left.

GRHA fly in to DC
 On Thursday, May 6, 2010, a small group of GRHA members flew to Washington and met with the Georgia Congressional Delegation Aides who work on healthcare issues. Some of the topics discussed included the importance of safety net clinics, workforce education and placement, and chronic disease.
The hour long meeting resulted in ways in which GRHA can help Georgia's Representatives and Senators in their respective districts. GRHA appreciates the help from Senator Isakson's office in reserving meeting space for us.
