Summary

The bill sets up a Midwifery Education Grant Program that gives up to $4 million to eligible University of North Carolina campuses to start certified nurse‑midwife programs. It targets schools that already have APRN degrees but lack midwifery training, with priority for historically Black colleges and those near partner hospitals. The goal is to increase the number of midwives serving North Carolina families.
