Health career training programs would offer basic education and guaranteed affordable child care.
A new bill would require government-funded health career training programs to provide basic education and guaranteed affordable child care. This means people wanting to enter health professions would get help with foundational skills like English and have child care options, removing major hurdles to their training.
Today, health profession opportunity grant programs do not have to provide basic education or guaranteed child care. If this bill passes, these programs would be required to offer basic skills assessments, foundational training, and ensure participants have access to affordable child care. These changes would take effect on October 1, 2025.
