The Program’s profound goal is for each scholar receiving the award to enter the field as a practicing school psychologist following graduation, infusing the profession with diversity and cultural awareness to benefit children and school communities across the country. The award is announced at the NASP Annual Convention. Funding may begin in the immediate Fall term after the announcement. The Program annually awards a minimum of one $5,000 scholarship to a chosen minority graduate student. In 2012, five $5,000 awards were funded. The ability to fund this Program is a direct result of individual and corporate donations. Donate now to help sustain this important program. Ethnicity and eligibility are specifically defined.
