The federal Project Grant award, titled "CENTER FOR NATIVE AMERICAN HEALTH'S INDIANS INTO MEDICINE- NEW MEXICO (CNAH INMED-NM)," was granted by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Indian Health Service under the Health Professions Preparatory Scholarship Program for Indians (CFDA 93.971). The $412,608 award, effective July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2029, supports the University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center (UNM HSC) in providing scholarships and financial assistance to American Indian and Alaska Native students to complete pre-professional education requirements, enabling them to qualify for enrollment or re-enrollment in health professions schools and curricula. This program aims to increase the representation of Native Americans in healthcare professions by addressing educational barriers and providing targeted financial support.
