Rural Local Health Departments: Share Your After-Action Reports

Feb 02, 2023 | Beth Hess

NACCHO is collaborating with The East Tennessee State University (ETSU) Center for Rural Health Research (CRHR) to assess public health emergency preparedness (PHEP) among rural local health departments. Through the grant, ETSU and NACCHO will be developing rural-specific PHEP capabilities through assessment activities and listening sessions across various states. Part of this project includes a needs assessment to identify shared challenges, gaps, and needs among rural local health departments (LHDs) as they pertain to meeting the PHEP Capabilities established by the CDC. A key component of the needs assessment includes a review of past After-Action Reports (AARs) from rural local health departments.

We are requesting AARs from rural LHDs across the United States. AARs provided will be used for the intended purposes of the specified project, will not be distributed in any identifiable manner, and associated information will be destroyed at the completion of the study.

Thank you to those who submitted AARs in response to this request. The request for submissions is now closed.

For inquiries concerning this project, please Michael Meit at [email protected].
