The Pennsylvania Housing Finance Agency (PHFA) has posted the final guidelines for the $100 million Housing Option Grant Program aimed at creating or preserving affordable housing. 

The state Department of Labor & Industry (L&I) Monday announced $1.2 million in grants to address the nursing shortage. 

The Wolf Administration today said the $225 million appropriation in Act 2 of 2022 will be used to retain and recruit health care workers and further help nurses pay for education. 

Pennsylvania’s $40.8 billion general fund budget was signed into law by Gov. Tom Wolf on Wednesday following approval by the House and Senate last Friday.

Incoming legislation in the House and Senate looks to give back to Pennsylvania’s “health care heroes” with $650 million in grant funding.
