Through a grant from the federal Health Resources and Services Administration, the IRHA created the “Healthy Start Communities that C.A.R.E" (HSCC) program to combat high infant mortality rates. The HSCC provides confidential screening, support, referrals, treatment and education for expectant mothers, infants and families.  The program has placed trained Perinatal Navigation teams to work one-on-one with residents in Bartholomew, Decatur, Greene, Jennings, and Switzerland counties.

The Indiana Rural Health Association (IRHA) has successfully acquired the Rural Communities Opioid Response Medication Assisted Treatment Access program funding from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA). Over the next three years, IRHA, in collaboration with its partners LifeSpring Health Systems and the Richard M. Fairbanks School of Public Health (FSPH) ECHO Center, will be at the helm of an initiative aimed at expanding the availability of medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for various SUDs. This initiative will be executed by establishing five permanent MAT access points and a mobile unit access point strategically positioned within the targeted service area.

The rural counties that will be directly benefited by this program include Orange, Crawford, Perry, Spencer, and Harrison. This endeavor will culminate in amplifying MAT access, obliterating geographic barriers, and bridging the gap between treatment and those in need.
