A recent report on, _Life In Rural America_, was issued earlier this
month by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. It is well worth a
discussion among network leaders. Join us on the November NCHN ER
call and we'll take a deeper dive into the findings and, how these
findings may influence the work in your Network.
Overall, the report findings illustrate that rural Americans have
strong ties to their local communities and value life, family, and
jobs in rural America. However, rural Americans also cite significant
challenges for their local communities. The top problems rural
Americans will face in the future are drug addiction/abuse and
improving troubled local economies. While rural Americans are
confident that major problems facing their local communities can be
solved within the next five years, a majority say they need outside
help to solve these problems.
