Jennifer L. Craig, executive director of the Southwest Indiana Area Health Education Center (SWI-AHEC), announced the awarding of $70,920 to support 10 Southwest Indiana programs. The funding supports educational programs and experiences for current and future healthcare professionals. This is the second year that SWI-AHEC has awarded grant funding for area educational programs.

The Southwest Indiana Area Health Education Center service area includes Daviess, Dubois, Gibson, Knox, Perry, Pike, Posey, Spencer, Vanderburgh, and Warrick counties. The Southwest Indiana Area Health Education Center, which is one of seven centers in Indiana, was formally established in the fall of 2008.

Dr. Nadine Coudret, University of Southern Indiana interim provost and vice-president for academic affairs, said, "Funding for these programs will create pathways for our future healthcare providers, increase the diversity of our healthcare workforce and provide continuing education for our practicing health care professionals. These programs along with other community partners will make a substantial contribution to advancing our efforts to make southern Indiana a healthy community."
