by:
Iola BonggayThe Health Resources and Services Administration(HRSA), under the supervision of the Department of Health and Human Services, is the country's premier agency for citizens who are insured, isolated, or medically vulnerable.
In keeping with this purpose, the HRSA mainly focuses on administering health care grants to eligible individuals, in order to help them obtain safe and quality care. Which is why, the HRSA also offers training to health professionals in rural communities in high hopes of constantly improving their systems of care.

The Affordable Care Act Capital Development - Immediate Facility Improvements Program will award approximately $100 million to 250-300 existing eligible Health Center Program Grantees. (continued...)
