The Rural Networking Café highlighted how rural programs are leading the way in Group-Based Education (GBE) efforts. This 90-minute café featured rural Healthy Start grantees sharing their strategies, lessons learned, and innovations in GBE. Participants explored rural experiences, discussed GBE priorities, and exchanged practical resources to strengthen participation, retention, and outcomes.
This interactive space was designed for peer learning, problem-solving, and building connections across rural sites, helping grantees adapt promising practices to their own communities.
