Editor's Notes
- I always think it is nice to put faces to names, so here we are. If you call RAC, you will speak with one of us.
- Our new Hot Topic Information Guides were developed to capture timely and information on a topic/issue that is currently very prevalent. As of now, we have 2 such guides: health reform and ARRAThe format is slightly different in that they feature news and key websites, with additional information specific to rural America.
