Opportunity Information: Apply for HRSA 23 014
The Advanced Nursing Education Workforce (ANEW) Program is a federal grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, administered by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA). Its central goal is to expand and strengthen the advanced practice registered nurse (APRN) workforce in key areas of national need, with an emphasis on primary care capacity. Specifically, the program aims to increase the number of primary care nurse practitioners, clinical nurse specialists, and certified nurse midwives who complete training and are prepared to deliver primary care services, maternal health care, and care related to mental health and substance use disorders. In practical terms, the program is designed to move more APRN students from enrollment through successful graduation while ensuring their preparation aligns with high-demand clinical settings and patient populations.
ANEW funding is structured to support trainees directly and to reinforce the training pipeline that makes APRN clinical education possible. Award recipients are expected to provide tuition assistance and other allowable trainee supports that reduce financial barriers and help students progress through their programs. Beyond student aid, the program places strong importance on building and maintaining academic-clinical partnerships, since APRN education depends heavily on high-quality clinical placements. These partnerships are meant to facilitate hands-on training opportunities across primary care, behavioral health and substance use treatment settings, and maternal health environments, depending on the focus of the trainee track. The opportunity also recognizes common bottlenecks in advanced nursing education, especially limited clinical faculty and preceptor capacity, and therefore supports efforts to develop, sustain, and retain clinical faculty and preceptors as needed to expand training volume without compromising quality.
A consistent theme in the opportunity is equity and workforce diversity. Applicants are strongly encouraged to recruit students/trainees and faculty from diverse backgrounds, reflecting HRSA's interest in building a workforce that better represents the communities it serves and can help reduce disparities in access and outcomes. The program also includes a clear service-oriented priority: funding preference is given to eligible entities that train APRN students to practice in underserved and rural communities or in state and local health departments. This preference signals that ANEW is not only about increasing raw numbers of graduates, but also about directing the workforce toward settings where shortages are persistent and where improved access can have an outsized public health impact.
From an administrative and funding standpoint, this is a discretionary grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA-23-014) in the health funding category, listed under CFDA/Assistance Listing 93.247. The opportunity was created on February 14, 2023, with an original application closing date of April 7, 2023. The award ceiling is $650,000 per award, and HRSA anticipated making approximately 53 awards. Eligibility is summarized broadly as "Others" with additional eligibility details referenced in the full announcement, implying that applicants should consult the official eligibility language to confirm organizational fit (often including schools of nursing, academic institutions, and other entities involved in APRN education and clinical training partnerships).
Overall, ANEW functions as a workforce development and training expansion program for advanced practice nursing. It invests in students through financial support, invests in training infrastructure through stronger academic-clinical partnerships, and invests in long-term capacity by supporting the preceptor and clinical faculty pipeline. Its priorities reflect a focus on primary care expansion, integration of mental health and substance use disorder competencies, maternal health readiness, and a deliberate push to strengthen care access in rural and underserved communities.Apply for HRSA 23 014
