About this program
The Song-Brown program funds institutions that train primary care health professionals to provide healthcare in California’s medically underserved areas.
This grant opportunity will result in funding organizations to train certified nurse midwifery students to work in underserved communities. Such strategies shall incorporate the following elements: 1. Establishing procedures to identify, recruit, and admit certified nurse midwifery students 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. 2. Implementing counseling and placement programs to encourage training program graduates to enter practice in areas of unmet need. 3. Providing a preceptorship experience in an area of unmet need to enhance the potential of training program graduates to practice in such an area.

Run federal grants too?
State grants are free to browse and are not part of member fit-scoring, alerts, or the Tuesday digest — those cover federal grants. Members get every federal grant that opens fit-scored to their organization (the home page defines exactly what the board covers) — with an alert when a real match posts.
