Thank you to everyone who joined us for this year’s Forum. With more than 200 attendees representing 31 of Oregon’s 36 counties, the event brought together partners from across the state to learn, connect and share ideas for improving rural health.

This year’s virtual Forum featured sessions on rural health innovation, trauma-informed care, community health workers, behavioral health and other strategies to strengthen the health and well-being of rural communities.

Thank you to our speakers, sponsors and attendees for making this year’s Forum a success. We look forward to continuing these conversations throughout the year.

Save the date: The 2027 Forum on Rural Population Health will take place in person May 10–12 in Seaside. We hope to see you there! Learn more here.
