The National Rural Health Association (NRHA) Border Health Initiative is continuing activities to encourage the development of improved access to quality health care services for rural Hispanic populations along the U.S. - Mexico Border. The basis of these efforst is the ongoing collaboration with groups dedicated to the same mission. This Compendium of Rural Best Practices and Models is a product of that collaboration. The initiative's effort is primarly intended to share and highlight communities along the border with models that can be built upon. It can also be used in a prescriptive manner by federal agencies, states and local health and health-related agencies for setting priorities for rural border communities. The compendium is representative of the NRHA Border Health Initiative's activities to encourage the development of improved access to quality health care services for rural populations along the U.S. - Mexico Border.
