SummaryCRS Summary

This bill requires the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to reserve a portion of funding under the Health Profession Opportunity Grants program for U.S. territories. (Organizations use these grants to provide education and training to low-income individuals for health care occupations that are expected to either experience labor shortages or be in high demand.) The bill also makes organizations in the Northern Mariana Islands eligible for the grants and requires HHS to award at least two grants to organizations in U.S. territories.
