Happy National Rural Health Day!
Today we'd like to reflect on the friendships made and partnerships reinforced by our latest Brain Train and Round Table events in Thief River Falls!

CERDAR Team presented at the St. Louis County Health and Human Services Conference this week! We had some great discussion with the audience on rural perspectives of living with memory loss, getting a diagnosis, the impacts of winter weather, and assets of living rurally.

BIG thank you to our station hosts who came together to make the day happen!
