Our Impact

Since 2010, the U.S. Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) Teaching Health Center Graduate Medical Education (THCGME) program help communities grow their health workforce training in outpatient settings with a focus on rural and underserved communities to increase access to care in areas with dentist and physician shortages. Since 2021, the HRSA Teaching Health Center Planning and Development (THCPD) program has provided start-up funding and technical assistance to create new accredited medical and dental training programs in these settings.
