Bill overview
The Pathways to Health Careers Act aims to expand access to healthcare jobs for low-income individuals by providing funding for demonstration grant programs. Specifically, it amends the Social Security Act to create a ‘Career Pathways through Health Profession Opportunity Grants’ program. This program will support projects that train eligible individuals for various health professions, including allied health, health information technology, and nursing roles, and will include requirements for partnerships with local organizations and support services like childcare and transportation. The bill also establishes dedicated grant programs for maternal mortality and second chance career pathways, with specific requirements for applicants and project design.
