Join the National Grange and our partners at Rural Minds for this introduction to the Rural Mental Health Resilience program.
We will be holding a free webinar on Wednesday, February 7, 2024 at 6:00 pm ET.

This free webinar on Zoom is being offered only to members of the National Grange. As a follow-up to the launch of the Rural Mental Health Resilience Program at the Annual National Grange Convention on November 16, 2023, this webinar will provide:
- An introduction of the ‘Rural Resilience’ program
- Online tour of the program webpage (Host will share his screen.)
- Demonstration of accessing and printing program documents
- Explanation on the value of program materials
- Suggestions for how to use the ‘Rural Resilience’ program to help improve rural mental health

In recognition of the self-reliance and a do-it-yourself mindset that are common among many people living in rural communities, the Rural Mental Health Resilience Program elevates these attributes to help empower rural Americans to become part of the solution to improving rural mental health. It provides Grangers and others across the country with free online access to relevant information, content, and action items so they can help themselves and serve as a trusted source of mental health information for their families, friends, and members of rural communities.
