ÐÜèÔÚÏßÊÓÆµ Center for Rural Health and Health Workforce
The ÐÜèÔÚÏßÊÓÆµ Center for Rural Health & Health Workforce (ACRH-HW) is dedicated to strengthening
ÐÜèÔÚÏßÊÓÆµâ€™s health workforce, with a focus on rural communities and addressing workforce
shortages. The Center oversees various programs, including the ÐÜèÔÚÏßÊÓÆµ Area Health
Education Centers (AHEC), which operate through six regional community-based centers
across the state. As part of the ÐÜèÔÚÏßÊÓÆµ's role as the state's
health campus, the Center supports health program planning, community partnerships,
and intercampus collaboration. It provides a statewide framework to support health
workforce development, from career exploration and training to continuing education.
From campus food pantries to statewide health initiatives, Keely Livingston is turning passion into purpose. Keely’s journey into public health began with hands-on work in food security during her undergrad years at Montana State and led her to enroll in UAA's Master of Public Health Program.
The UAA Seawolf Food Pantry celebrates its new location with faculty, staff, and students, encouraging those experiencing food insecurity to take advantage of this vital resource.
