Northern Borders Technical Assistance Center Project
Rural Northern Border Region Healthcare Support Technical Assistance Center
A collaboration of five organizations with unique expertise formed to provide a comprehensive catalog of technical assistance services throughout the rural Northern Border Region, inclusive of the states of Maine, New Hampshire, New York, and Vermont. The Northern Border Region Technical Assistance Center (NBR-TAC) is comprised of partner organizations with vast experience in rural health, and these partners include:
Rural Health Redesign Center Organization
New England Rural Health Association
Rural Health Value
Stroudwater Associates
Wellness Equity Alliance
Funded through a Cooperative Agreement from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) and in partnership with the Northern Border Region Commission (NBRC), we will be leveraging our collective experience and a strong commitment to improving the lives within our rural communities.
Our technical assistance (TA) services will include, but not limited to, assisting organizations in preparing for Value-Based Care delivery, leadership coaching, strategy planning support, support for improving access to care including behavioral health and substance use disorder services, and workforce development- with emphasis on recruitment and retention. At least one community within each of the four states will receive technical assistance from the NBR-TAC each year for the next three years.
The services provided by the NBR-TAC are supported by funding from HRSA and are at no cost to our end-point stakeholders. Preparing rural communities for the future through appropriate and innovative technical assistance is the goal of the RHRCO and its consortium partners to support the goals of the Northern Border Region Commission and HRSA
