The Community Connection Award was not given in 2011.
In 2011, KHA will be focusing our efforts on the Community Needs Assessment requirements in the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. The Community Connection Award will not be given in 2011. KHA will look to our members for feedback on this award program as we determine whether to bring it back in 2012. Share your feedback with
Cindy Samuelson.
