I would be honored and forever grateful if I had the opportunity to be a recipient of the Minnesota Loan Forgiveness Program. My intentions are to continue to serve the rural Minnesota community throughout my lifetime and career through direct patient care. I am very passionate about providing cost-effective, convenient, and thorough care to rural patients especially in the community where I grew up. Having less student loans would help me to continue to pursue my psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner degree (while continuing to work full-time as a family nurse practitioner) to help better serve northern Minnesota's population. Thank you for the consideration!
Sincerely,
Jessica Claire - Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP-C)
