About this opportunity

This grant opportunity will result in funding organizations to educate and train primary care (family medicine, internal medicine, OB/GYN, and pediatric) residents to work in underserved communities.

Establishing procedures to identify, recruit, and match primary care residents who possess characteristics which would suggest a predisposition to practice in areas of unmet need, and who express a commitment to serve in areas of unmet need. 3. Implementing counseling and placement programs to encourage training program graduates to enter practice in areas of unmet need. 4. Providing preceptorship experiences in an area of unmet need to enhance the potential of training program graduates to practice in such an area.
