SUMMARY:Rural Health Journalism Workshop 2019
DESCRIPTION:Free workshop in Denver to cover health issues of rural America\n\n\n\nAHCJ’s 11th Rural Health Journalism Workshop will bring journalists together with health care and policy experts who focus on the medical challenges of rural areas. \n\n\n\nLeave with a better understanding of what’s happening – or will be happening – in rural regions\, and return to work with dozens of story ideas you can pursue. You don’t have to live in a rural area to write great stories about what’s happening just beyond the city limits. And think about how much policy is set based on the non-urban population of your state. \n\n\n\nThis special one-day\, no-fee workshop will help you find and cover health stories in rural America. \n\n\n\nSchedule\n\n\n\nThis workshop will run from 8:30 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. on June 12 at the Radisson Hotel Denver with breakfast and lunch provided. Breakfast available at 7:30 a.m.  \n\n\n\nNeed help?\n\n\n\nThis workshop is free to attend for journalist members. If\, however\, you still need some financial assistance in getting to the workshop\, you may apply for a limited travel stipend.  \n\n\n\nLocal host\n\n\n\n\nNational Jewish Health\n\n\n\n\nSponsors\n\n\n\n\nThe Leona M. and Harry B. Helmsley Charitable Trust\n\n\n\nRobert Wood Johnson Foundation\n\n\n\nThe Commonwealth Fund
