PREPARE (Preceptor Recruitment and Expansion to Prepare Arkansas to Realize Healthcare Excellence) Grant

This four-year program seeks to recruit and retain nurse practitioners who plan to be primary care providers in rural and/or underserved areas. Students are supported with scholarships and stipends while practicing at partner clinical training sites. This not only prepares graduates to serve rural areas but also improves the training experience for both students and preceptors.
