A new poll finds that drug/opioid abuse and economic concerns are the top challenges. When it comes to drug addiction and abuse\, a majority of rural Americans say opioid addiction is a serious problem in their community. On economic issues\, rural Americans largely hold negative views of their local economy\, but nearly one-third have seen economic progress in recent years. What may help? A majority of rural Americans believe outside help will be necessary to solve major community problems in the future\, and many believe government will play an important role. \nConvened shortly before National Rural Health Day and after the nation’s midterm elections\, a panel of experts will explore the public health and policy implications of these findings within the broader context of life in rural America. Read the poll\, conducted by NPR\, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and Harvard T.H.
