Loan help expands for therapists, cuts others

Beginning July 1, 2025, Nevada’s student loan repayment program for health providers changes who can qualify. Marriage and family therapists and clinical alcohol and drug counselors (licensed or certified) are now eligible. Perfusionists are also included. Some groups lose eligibility: pharmacists and pharmacy technicians; social workers at all levels; midwives; and Medicaid-enrolled doulas. The law does not change award amounts or add new funding. You must still work in an underserved community to get help.
