Grants and Contracts Details
Description
The Community and Economic Development Initiative of Kentucky (CEDIK) at the
University of Kentucky proposes to continue administering scholarships, with funding provided
by the New York Community Trust, to Appalachian residents seeking education in health or a
health-related field. The shortage of health care providers in the Appalachian region, along with
the expected retirement of many physicians, and of course an aging population that demands
more health care, the need to educate and then retain young health care professionals is a real
priority. CEDIK will work with 4-year institutions, junior colleges, and community and technical
schools to publicize the scholarships. We foresee being able to award 11 scholarships at $5,000
each over a 1-year period.
