 Kickoff Webinar: Hometown Connections School-Based Services
The Iowa Primary Care Association (Iowa PCA) will host a virtual webinar to kick off the new Hometown Connections School-Based services in Iowa, as part of the state’s Rural Health Transformation Program efforts.

This initiative aims to make it easier for children and families living in rural Iowa to get care close to home. Funding will be invested in healthcare providers to collaborate with schools and other partners to offer more comprehensive and coordinated care including physical, mental/behavioral, and dental health, and other services and supports Iowa children and families need to stay or become healthier. The Iowa PCA will share training, tools, and support to help communities plan this work.
WHO: Open to the general public
WHAT: The webinar will explain Hometown Connections School-Based services, how this project connects to upcoming state funding opportunities, what providers, schools, and partners can expect next, and how rural organizations can stay involved
