Rural PRO CARE is dedicated to community centered research and seeks feedback on strategies, priorities, and future directions from the communities we aim to support. Our advisory board is composed to keep us connected to this ideal by representing diverse rural health and content experts. In addition to network-wide advisory board members, each project has nominated a community member with expertise related to their project to the board.
