This bill amends the Social Security Act to set aside funds for U.S. territories under a health profession opportunity grant program, makes the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands eligible for those grants, and guarantees at least two grants to entities in territories.
Sec. 2, Set-aside for the territories: The bill requires that 5 percent of funds under the health profession opportunity grant program each fiscal year be reserved for grants to states other than the 50 states and the District of Columbia, meaning U.S. territories.
Sec. 3, Eligibility of the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands: The bill removes a subparagraph that previously excluded the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands from eligibility for these grants, making it eligible.
Sec. 4, Guarantee of grantees in the territories: The bill directs the Secretary to award at least two grants under this program to eligible entities located in a territory, provided there are enough qualifying applications from such entities.
Sec. 5, Effective date: The changes take effect on October 1, 2025.
