The Maryland Department of Health is seeking projects, concepts, and approaches that can help transform rural health. These ideas will be used to craft the state's proposal to improve rural health in Maryland. It is important that the Department hears directly from residents who live and work in rural Maryland.

We invite you to fill out this request for information to share your project ideas and approaches. Click here to see a full list of the survey questions.
You may also submit your response to the questions in the following ways:

Share Your Experiences
Local health departments will hold a series of listening sessions to understand community needs and solicit ideas and recommendations. Information about upcoming convenings will be shared on this page and on MDH social media channels.
