- Students and institutions: Hospitals, health professions schools, community health centers, rural health clinics, professional associations, tribal organizations, and government entities can get grants for training and capacity building. Grants may last up to three years.
- Rural and workforce-shortage areas: Prioritizes health professional shortage areas and rural regions for awards and requires Secretary reports plus a Government Accountability Office (GAO) review within four years to assess program effectiveness and duplication.

Bill Overview
Analyzed Economic Effects
4 provisions identified: 4 benefits, 0 costs, 0 mixed.
Three-year funding for clinician support programs
The law authorizes $35 million each year for FY2022–FY2024 for clinician support grants and related programs. It also authorizes $10 million each year for FY2022–FY2024 for the national education and awareness effort. These are authorizations; Congress must appropriate funds before HHS can spend them.
Grants for clinician mental health programs
HHS gives grants or contracts to hospitals, clinics, and medical associations. Money supports evidence-based programs that improve mental health and resiliency for health care professionals. Priority goes to health professional shortage areas and rural areas. Allowed uses include suicide and substance use awareness, prevention, peer support, and providing care or referrals. Grants last three years, and awardees must report results.
Training grants for health care students
HHS may fund health professions schools, academic health centers, governments, Tribes, and nonprofits. Grants support training for students, residents, and clinicians on mental health, substance use disorders, and resiliency. Training must be evidence-based. Groups can form consortia for team-based training.
National campaign to support clinician wellbeing
HHS runs a national education and awareness effort for health care professionals. It encourages clinicians to seek help, teaches warning signs, and tackles stigma. HHS consults medical groups and other stakeholders. Within two years of enactment, HHS must share best practices and update Congress with results.
