National Rural Health Day

Driving Change | Going the Extra Mile

We set aside the third Thursday of every November to celebrate National Rural Health Day (NRHD). This year’s theme is Driving Change | Going the Extra Mile.
NRHD is an opportunity to “Celebrate the Power of Rural” by honoring the selfless, community-minded, and determined spirit that prevails in rural America. NRHD showcases the efforts of rural healthcare providers, organizations and cooperatives, State Offices of Rural Health, and stakeholders from various industry sectors dedicated to addressing Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) and the unique healthcare challenges that rural citizens face today and into the future.
Nominate a 2022 Community Star!
If you know of a person, coalition, or organization located, working, or volunteering in a designated rural area, we invite you to honor them by nominating them to be a 2022 Community Star!
Community Star nominations will be accepted until 5:00 pm Central Time on August 1, 2022. Once the nomination period closes, submissions will not be accepted.
