GROWTH Act of 2023
The GROWTH Act of 2023 expands funding for nursing workforce training by making community colleges and their healthcare partnerships eligible for grants under the Nurse Education, Practice, Quality, and Retention program. It directly affects community colleges with existing nursing programs and partnerships between these colleges and healthcare facilities like Federally Qualified Health Centers. The bill requires the Secretary of Health and Human Services to prioritize up to 50% of annual funding for these community colleges or their partnerships. This changes how funds are distributed, ensuring a significant portion supports workforce development at the community college level.
