A program at Montana State University that is designed to help Native Americans succeed in nursing has received a grant worth nearly $1 million.

MSU’s Caring For Our Own Program, or CO-OP, recently received a grant from the Indian Health Service worth $332,715 a year for three years. The funds will enable the program to support several additional students: CO-OP was previously supporting 21 students over three years, and with these funds it will be expanded to support 27 students over three years.
