Our Mission

Our mission is to unite people, communities and organizations to strengthen rural health in West Virginia.

Our Priorities

The West Virginia Rural Health Association focuses on three areas: Organizational Development and Communications; Education, Advocacy, and Policy; and Resource Development. We’re here to raise awareness of rural health issues, invest in policies that make positive changes in our communities, and build a strong, encouraging organization.

Organizational Development & Communications

Our desire is to increase awareness of, and involvement in the WVRHA, developing a larger, more diverse membership base and implementing a strong, organizational framework.

Education, Advocacy & Policy

Our goal is to develop the WVRHA as a resource in rural health issues for legislators, policy makers, business and community leaders, consumers and health care providers.

Resource Development

The WVRHA aspires to build a growing, financially stable organization with the help of our members in order to encourage and strengthen rural West Virginians and to find ways to improve services in our communities.
