Are you a clinician looking for ways to pay off your student loans? Now is the time to apply for one of our National Health Service Corps (NHSC) loan repayment programs

This year's programs are offering increased funding for eligible clinicians, including an increase of 50% in the two-year NHSC Loan Repayment Program award amount (increased to $75,000) for full-time primary care participants.

HRSA is also addressing language-access barriers to health care with a $5,000 award enhancement to providers who provide Spanish-speaking services in direct care to patients with limited English-speaking skills. The award is available to eligible applicants in all three loan repayment programs and is in addition to the maximum award amounts.

Now Available: New Analysis of School Readiness Among U.S. Children

kids

HRSA invites you to review a newly published study that looks at the factors impacting children's readiness for school. Using revised measures from the HRSA National Survey of Children's Health 2022 data set, authors concluded that over two-thirds of young children are healthy and ready to learn, but there were significant differences across the areas measured.

We encourage our partners to check out the new analysis published by HRSA colleagues in Academic Pediatrics and use the data to understand the strengths, needs, and gaps in services for our nation's children.
