Despite the great strides made by trailblazing women in fields touching every corner of society, representation remains an issue, especially in high-impact fields like criminal justice and law.

Women of color are particularly marginalized in many fields, with institutionalized sexism and racism both presenting hurdles towards entry-level work and career advancement, alongside factors such as the racial and gender-based wealth gaps that can make college particularly unaffordable for BIPOC women.

This scholarship seeks to support underrepresented women as they make their mark in higher education and achieve their academic goals.

Any female BIPOC undergraduate or graduate student who is pursuing criminal justice, law, or law enforcement with at least a 2.5 GPA may apply for this scholarship opportunity if they have volunteer experience.
