About RHAA

The purpose for the Rural Health Association of Arkansas (RHAA) is to create a neutral, coordinating, and unifying entity and voice of advocacy for improved health and health care access for ALL rural Arkansans. Our goal is not to replace or duplicate any existing efforts, but to support and complement such organizations.

We hope to be an effective network of bridge builders, with an accessible and functional infrastructure, to provide a venue for the broadest range of rural health advocates to voice and navigate concerns, to help consolidate and amplify their messages, and to pursue mutually beneficial solutions. We seek to inspire healthier rural communities across Arkansas, through better communication, collaboration, education, advocacy and improved access to information, resources, best practices, and policies.
