“We are thrilled to have joined NRHI as a new member of this partnership of multisector collaboratives working in cities, counties and rural areas to improve healthcare systems and delivery in their communities. NRHI membership elevates HIP’s work to a national audience, expands our capacity to advocate on critical healthcare policy, opens new doors to funding opportunities, and provides a forum to learn and engage with like organizations across the country.”

"I am certain you are all familiar with the expression 'the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.' And, that is what NRHI is... a far greater catalyst than any one member could be. Without NRHI our individual voices are weaker, lacking structure and focus. NRHI brings together its members, providing the important platform and organization for them to collaborate, to build consensus on areas of urgent need, and to lift our joint voices into the national stage so that all of our local efforts are multiplied and will make a lasting difference."
