The Distance Learning and Telemedicine Loan and Grant Program was designed by Congress to enable rural communities to improve the quality of educational opportunities and medical service. I believe strongly that educational opportunities include worker retraining and transitional education. Applicants can partner with local businesses or businesses considering moving into a rural area. Schools, community colleges, and other teaching institutions partner with the private sector today. Within that mandate, this is a program that is truly limited only by the innovation of the rural communities it serves.
