Purpose

The purpose of the Rural Health Research Center Program is to increase the amount of high quality, impartial, policy-relevant research to assist decision-makers at the federal, state, and local levels to better understand problems faced by rural communities, and provide information that will improve access to quality, affordable healthcare services.

RHRC recipients will conduct policy-oriented health services research on rural issues and synthesize the results into reports easily understood by a non-technical policy audience.

The awards provided through the RHRC Cooperative Agreement Program are designed to provide support for a four-year research center with a specific area of research concentration. The Cooperative Agreement Program will support health services research projects but excludes clinical/biomedical research and the use of funds for delivery of services.

Public or private, nonprofit or for-profits organizations, tribes, and tribal organizations are eligible to apply.
