Governor John Hickenlooper recently appointed Susan Hall of Grand Junction and Janette Kochis of Matheson as new members of the Colorado Rural Health Care Grant Council. Both will serve terms through December 31, 2013. The Colorado Rural Health Care Grant Council oversees the Colorado Rural Health Care Grant Program. The purpose of the program is to fund projects that support Colorado’s rural health infrastructure and strengthen the capacity of rural entities to provide primary care services.

The Grant Program is funded by UnitedHealth Group. Grant information for the fifth and final round of this program will be available in early December. For more information, please contact Shelly Collings at sc@coruralhealth.org.
