Welcome to our Web Portal for Northern New Mexico Rural/Frontier Women’s Health Coordinating Center!
The Northern New Mexico Rural/Frontier Women’s Health Coordinating Center (RFCC) is one of 11 National RFCC's supported by the federal Office of Women’s Health (OWH). The RFCCs are among five programs that make up the OWH’s Multidisciplinary Models for Women’s Health. The goal of the national RFCC network is to extend the best scientific knowledge and practices in women’s health to the farthest reaches of the health care delivery system. In Northern New Mexico, our mission is to reduce the health problems that women living in our communities face due to lack of information, support, and access to quality women’s health-related services and providers. We work towards that mission through building projects, collaborations and networks across our service region in these five areas: 

  * Health care delivery & standards of care
  * Public education and outreach
  * Health professional education, training, recruitment & retention
  * Community-based research
  * Leadership development in women’s health

Who are we?
