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.

provision
in the law could help improve
academic outcomes for low-income students
by
providing much-needed health services at school.
