Healthy Transitions Scholarship
College can be an exciting time as students begin to create lifelong friendships and a foundation for future career success. College can also be a stressful time, and some students find themselves relying on things like alcohol to alleviate stress and fit in with peers.
This scholarship seeks to support students who are educating their peers about the transition to college and how to have a healthy relationship with legal substances.
Any high school junior, senior, or undergraduate student in New York who has educated their peers about healthy relationships with legal substances, how to spot the warning signs of growing dependence, and how to get help may apply for this scholarship.
To apply, please tell us how you educated your peers. You can do this by using a creative medium of your choice such as a video, PowerPoint, article, or graphic.
