The Rural Health Initiative

The Rural Health Initiative

The Rural Health Initiative is an exploratory campaign to support conversations within the School on best practices in managing and researching various topics in public health in rural communities. So far in our campaign, we’ve successfully hosted two events, both of which featured discussions between BSPH faculty who are pioneering approaches to serve public health interventions and address barriers in rural communities.
