Survey seeks input on rural health issues

Public health researchers are looking for your ideas on the most important health issues facing rural residents. This is a chance to help shape health goals that will guide rural leaders and researchers for the next decade.

This project, Rural Healthy People 2020, is designed to identify the most significant preventable threats to the health of rural people and to establish goals for reducing these threats. The starting point for this conversation is an online survey.

You’re invited to take the survey and to forward this link to people in your own networks so they can participate, too.

The broader we distribute the survey, the more likely we are to get results that match the health concerns of all rural Americans.

 The survey should take 5-10 minutes to complete and does not require professional background in health issues.
