ABSTRACT
The Hawai'i Unified Telehealth program is a distance learning health education program for rural communities, created with federal grant funding from the U.S. Department of Commerce and the National Institutes of Health. These grant funds helped develop a network of rural community learning centers that employ distance learning technologies to provide community-driven peer education to isolated areas across Hawai'i and Majuro, Republic of the Marshall Islands. In this article, the authors briefly describe the development of the ongoing health education program and the results of outcome evaluation completed at the end of the funding period.
