The MORE Act modifies the Health Profession Opportunity Grants program, which provides training funding to help low-income individuals enter healthcare careers. The bill requires the federal government to prioritize grant applications from organizations that partner with state and local government agencies, educational institutions, workforce development boards, healthcare employers, and labor unions. This preference system aims to ensure that training programs have strong connections to the job market and community resources. The changes take effect on October 1, 2023, and apply to all future grant applications under the program.
