In this episode, Heidi and Joel talk about their trip to the Democratic National Convention in Chicago. They reflect on the key moments and takeaways from the convention and provide their unique perspectives on what it all means for the future of rural Americans and the Democratic Party.
Heidi also sits down with Chuck Corra, Co-founder and Co-host of the Appodlachia podcast. Chuck joins us to break down the recent republican VP pick, JD Vance, and what his selection means for rural America. Together, they explore how the GOP’s policies—or lack thereof—will impact these communities during this election.
Then, we hear from Connie Garner, Senior Policy Director, to discuss the critical issue of mental health in rural areas. Connie, a longtime advocate for mental health parity, shares her perspectives on the challenges and opportunities in expanding mental health services and support to underserved communities when voting this year.
