National Rural Health Week 2026

Join us for National Rural Health Week, celebrating rural healthcare across Canada! This year’s campaign is co-presented by the Society of Rural Physicians of Canada (SRPC), Rural Coordination Centre of BC (RCCbc), Rural Health Professions Action Plan (RHhPAP), and the Indigenous Physicians Association of Canada (IPAC). Throughout the week, we will center the relationships that make rural care possible by shining a light on the communities that welcome rural providers, the teams that sustain rural care, our relationships with the land, Indigenous knowledge, and the wisdom shared among people, communities, organizations.

Is your organisation, network, or community planning or considering an event or activity in October that could be highlighted as part of Canadian National Rural Health Week? Please send us a short description of your event (up to 500 characters), along with a link for more information, to communications@rccbc.ca by September 25, 2026.
