Many people silently struggle with mental health issues and don’t have access to the care they need. Without help, mental crises can lead to poor academic performance, daily struggles, and even self-harm or suicide. Improving mental health services is critical for saving lives.
This scholarship aims to support students who plan to enter a mental healthcare profession and make an impact in their community.
Any underrepresented minority high school or four-year undergraduate student who has non-profit or volunteering experience and at least a 3.0 GPA may apply for this scholarship if they are pursuing psychology, social work, counseling, or another mental health-related field.
To apply, tell us about yourself and how you will use your education to make a difference in the mental health field.
