Behavioral health providers and stakeholders across Illinois are invited to participate in two virtual listening sessions focused on upcoming funding opportunities through the Illinois Rural Health Transformation Program.

As part of this work, the association is gathering input from providers, stakeholders and professional networks throughout Illinois.
