PA Program: Grant for Expansion

Grant for Expansion of Physician Assistant Training Program

Congratulations to the Physician Assistant program who received a grant today from the Health Resources Services Administration (HRSA) in the amount of $704,000 for the project "Expansion of Physician Assistant Training Program".

The goal of this project is to graduate 16 additional physician assistants in the next 4 years who will be qualified to deliver high quality, culturally and linguistically appropriate care. Selected students will receive scholarship support and will agree to practice in primary care.

Thank-you to Maria Edwards and the PA team (Dr. Karen Arscott, Dr. Stan Blondeck, Dr. Lori Swanchak, Marie Bonavoglia, Lisa Mattei, and Linda Hunter) for all their hard work.
