The Reproductive Health Care Training Act of 2026 would establish a federal grant program administered by the Department of Health and Human Services to fund education and training in abortion care. The program would award grants to medical schools, academic health centers, and nonprofit healthcare providers in states where abortion training is legally permitted, with priority given to institutions serving minority and underserved communities. Eligible institutions could use funding to expand clinical abortion training for medical students and residents, develop training programs, create partnerships to improve access, recruit providers from underserved areas, and offer scholarships to trainees focused on serving medically underserved populations. The bill authorizes $25 million in annual funding for fiscal years 2027 through 2031 and requires participating institutions and the federal government to submit annual reports on program performance to Congress.
