title: Rural health care & interdisciplinary education.
abstract: In response to the call for more rural health service providers and health education with an interdisciplinary focus, James Madison University's School of Health and Human Services initiated an undergraduate education program in rural Virginia. The project enhanced the attractiveness to students of rural health practice and exposed them to the effectiveness of collaboration among health professionals.
