Why Exhibit?

As companies with rural roots and/or rural customers, exhibiting at NARMH's conference makes sense. It’s an opportunity for your organization to reach clinicians, administrators, physicians, consumers, family members, program/service providers, researchers, policy and decision makers with your marketing message. The theme for this year’s conference is: "Rural Resilience."
