The Christine E. Lynn College of Nursing at Florida Atlantic University received a three-year, $2 million grant from the Health Resources & Services Administration of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services for an advanced nursing education program. It’s called the “Caring-based Academic Partnerships to Enhance Nurse Practitioner Readiness and Willingness to Practice in Rural and Underserved Communities.” These grants are intended to grow the primary-care workforce.

In August, Harrigan Foundation presented Southeast Florida Behavioral Health Network with an $8,000 check from its inaugural Run to the Rescue 5K Run/1 Mile Walk Fundraiser in February. The money will help offset co-pays for counseling and treatment for first responders such as firefighters, police officers, EMTs, nurses, lifeguards and veterans.
