The Gateway Centre of Excellence in Rural Health has moved.
Gateway was born in Seaforth about ten years ago as the Gateway Rural Health Research Institute. The name was changed in the last year and on Friday Gateway hosted an open house at it's new location on the second floor of the Libro Credit Union in Goderich.

President Dr Agnes Kluz says they're thrilled to be in Goderich and close to many of their partners. Dr Kluz says they have six students working with them out of their new office this year. They are at various stages in their education and they're focus will be on addiction and mental health. She points out that some of the students come from Huron County and surrounding area and she explains their goal is two-fold, to encourage local people interested in health care to come back to the area when they're ready to work but also to show of what rural medicine has to offer to people who are not familiar with Huron County.
