DOWNLOAD EBOOKAbout 45 persons, who are affiliated with government agencies, universities, and foundations and whose fields of specialization included economics, sociology, housing, welfare, medicine, education, and nutrition, participated in a workshop on the quality of rural living. Formal papers presented during the initial sessions included: "What Constitutes Quality of Living?""Rural Health in the United States,""Nutritional Levels in Rural United States: New Approaches Needed,""Urban-Rural Contrasts in Public Welfare,""Possibilities for Improving Rural Living: An Economist's View,""Quality of Rural Education in the United States,""Rural Housing in the United States: Essential Steps Required to Upgrade It," and "Employment and Income of Rural People." All but one presentation was followed by a discussion period. The recommendations of three work groups on needed research, changes in education, and changes in government programs and policies are included. The Agricultural Board appointed a committee to prepare recommendations based on the major points brought out in the papers, in the discussion periods, and in the reports of the work groups at the conclusion of the workshop. Educational opportunities for the young, adult education, welfare, housing, social monitoring, the team approach to research, and distribution of economic activity and population growth were the areas of concern.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKRural counties make up about 80 percent of the land area of the United States, but they contain less than 20 percent of the U.S. population. The relative sparseness of the population in rural areas is one of many factors that influence the health and well-being of rural Americans. Rural areas have histories, economies, and cultures that differ from those of cities and from one rural area to another. Understanding these differences is critical to taking steps to improve health and well-being in rural areas and to reduce health disparities among rural populations. To explore the impacts of economic, demographic, and social issues in rural communities and to learn about asset-based approaches to addressing the associated challenges, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine held a workshop on June 13, 2017. This publication summarizes the presentations and discussions from the workshop.
