OVERVIEW

About Us
The South Carolina Office of Rural Health (SCORH), a
501(c)3 non-profit statewide organization, is dedicated
to improving the health of rural and underserved
communities throughout the state. Since 1991, SCORH
has worked with local, statewide and national partners to
leverage opportunities for improving rural quality of life.
As the only federally-designated statewide organization
solely focused on the health needs of rural communities,
SCORH strives to connect available assets with community
need.

With 27% of the state’s population living in rural

communities, improving quality healthcare and positive
health outcomes is paramount. Through a family of
programs and resources, SCORH offers training, education
and technical assistance to rural providers, advocates and
communities. Encouraging rural-friendly policy, robust
asset allocation and pro-rural messaging are cornerstones
of SCORH’s work.

The South Carolina Office of Rural Health’s Staff and

Board are committed to closing the gap in health
status and life expectancy between rural and urban
communities. Through strong collaboration with state
and national partners, and most importantly, rural
communities themselves, we aim to do just that!
