NBCC Foundation Announces New Military and Rural Scholarships

 

The NBCC Foundation is pleased to announce two new scholarships for
individuals pursuing a career in professional counseling.  The scholarships
highlight and support the Foundation's mission of increasing access to
mental health care through professional counseling services, particularly in
underserved populations.

 

The Military Scholarship Program is designed to encourage servicemembers and
veterans to embark on a career in counseling.  The program provides
financial support to students who enroll in a CACREP-approved counseling
program during or after military service, and commit to serving military
personnel after graduation.  

 

Similarly, the Rural Scholarship Program offers financial support to
students from rural and underserved areas who enroll in a CACREP-approved
counseling program and commit to serving in these communities after
graduation.  

 

Scholarships for both programs will be in the amount of $3000 and five of
each type will be offered every year.  Recent military experience is
required for the military scholarship, and residence in a rural area is a
requirement for the rural scholarship.    

 

Individuals interested in obtaining more information about the scholarships
or downloading an application should visit the Foundation's Web site:
