Established in 2017, FNP PREP is a partnership with Fresno Pacific University designed to recruit future healthcare providers to curb the growing demand for practitioners in rural communities. 

Attendees of the 2019 California Rural Health Conference will hear directly for the program designers and learn the essential elements of replicating the program as well as the impact FNP PREP is having on recruitment, retention and quality health outcomes in rural communities.
