National Rural Health Association (NRHA)
The obstacles faced by health care providers and patients in rural areas are vastly different than those in urban areas. Economic factors, cultural and social differences, educational shortcomings, lack of recognition by legislators and the sheer isolation of living in remote areas all conspire to create health care disparities and impede rural Americans in their struggle to lead normal, healthy lives.
The National Rural Health Association (NRHA) is a national nonprofit membership organization that brings together thousands of members across the United States.The association’s mission is to provide leadership on rural health issues through advocacy, communications, education and research.
