Download or read book The Family In Rural Society written by Raymond T Coward and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-07-11 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social and political attention often is focused on urban issues, neglecting the still-rural character of much of the United States. This volume of original papers provides a clear picture of present-day rural society, with special emphasis on the changing role and structure of the family. It describes demographic trends, discusses the family aspects of the new wave of inmigrants to small towns and rural communities, reviews the diversity of patterns and forms adopted by rural families, considers the plight of the rural aged, and explores the dynamics of intrafamily personal relationships. The book ends with speculations on future prospects and challenges facing rural families.

This book was released on 1971 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About 45 persons, who are affiliated with government agencies, universities, and foundations and whose fields of specialization included economics, sociology, housing, welfare, medicine, education, and nutrition, participated in a workshop on the quality of rural living. Formal papers presented during the initial sessions included: "What Constitutes Quality of Living?""Rural Health in the United States,""Nutritional Levels in Rural United States: New Approaches Needed,""Urban-Rural Contrasts in Public Welfare,""Possibilities for Improving Rural Living: An Economist's View,""Quality of Rural Education in the United States,""Rural Housing in the United States: Essential Steps Required to Upgrade It," and "Employment and Income of Rural People." All but one presentation was followed by a discussion period. The recommendations of three work groups on needed research, changes in education, and changes in government programs and policies are included. The Agricultural Board appointed a committee to prepare recommendations based on the major points brought out in the papers, in the discussion periods, and in the reports of the work groups at the conclusion of the workshop. Educational opportunities for the young, adult education, welfare, housing, social monitoring, the team approach to research, and distribution of economic activity and population growth were the areas of concern.

Download or read book Achieving Rural Health Equity and Well Being written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2018-10-17 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rural counties make up about 80 percent of the land area of the United States, but they contain less than 20 percent of the U.S. population. The relative sparseness of the population in rural areas is one of many factors that influence the health and well-being of rural Americans. Rural areas have histories, economies, and cultures that differ from those of cities and from one rural area to another. Understanding these differences is critical to taking steps to improve health and well-being in rural areas and to reduce health disparities among rural populations. To explore the impacts of economic, demographic, and social issues in rural communities and to learn about asset-based approaches to addressing the associated challenges, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine held a workshop on June 13, 2017. This publication summarizes the presentations and discussions from the workshop.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to concerns resulting from changes in metropolitan growth during the past decade, and the concomitant gain in population of nonmetropolitan areas, this study was conducted in an effort to understand the effects of such growth on the quality of rural life and the physical environment. Data analyzed dealt with safisfactions, perceptions, evaluations, behaviors, and environmental characteristics, as seen by rural residents in three national and one regional (northern Michigan) surveys conducted between 1971 and 1976. The studies, which included questionnaires, personal interviews, and telephone interviews, defined the population groups by age, race, income and educational levels, job status, and occupation, with the last three categories looked at separately for men and women. Results indicated a somewhat "mixed picture" of life in rural America. In most instances, a greater satisfaction than dissatisfaction was seen in rural areas than in urban areas, but rural residents taken as a whole were seen to be neither better nor worse off than urban Americans. Stemming from limitations of using available national data in characterizing life in rural America, six issues concerning research tasks were identified which should be addressed by policy makers and other groups and individuals concerned with the quality of rural life.
