The federal Project Grant award of $104,250.00 was provided by the United States Department of Agriculture National Institute of Food and Agriculture through the Veterinary Medicine Loan Repayment Program (CFDA 10.313). The grant is intended to address critical shortages of veterinary professionals in rural and underserved communities by offering educational loan repayment incentives for qualified veterinarians to provide professional veterinary services in designated high-priority food supply shortage areas across the United States and its insular territories. The award funding is structured to support a three-year service commitment from the recipient veterinarian, with the goal of improving access to veterinary care, particularly for food animals and agricultural needs, in regions experiencing professional veterinary service gaps.
