<div style="margin-bottom: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;">The NBCC Foundation is pleased to
announce the application period is open for the National Board for Certified Counselors
Minority Fellowship Program (<a href="http://nbcc.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT0yOTQ5MTA2JnA9MSZ1PTgxMjA4ODE0NyZsaT0xNjE5Nzk4Ng/index.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">NBCC
MFP</a>). This program is made possible by a grant awarded to NBCC by the Substance
Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). The NBCC Foundation
has been contracted by NBCC to administer 22 counseling fellowships, as well as
training and collaboration activities that will be open to all National Certified Counselors.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: inherit;">According to SAMHSA Administrator Pamela
S. Hyde, many racial and ethnic groups do not have access to quality behavioral
health care delivered by practitioners who truly understand the language and culture
of the population they serve. This program will help ensure that the behavioral
health needs of all Americans are met, regardless of language or culture, thereby
reducing health disparities and improving overall community health and well-being.
By strategically promoting and providing fellowships to doctoral counseling students,
the NBCC MFP strengthens the infrastructure that engages diverse individuals in
counseling and increases the number of professional counselors providing effective,
culturally competent services to underserved populations.</span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: inherit;">Doctoral fellowships of up to $20,000 are available to
22 doctoral-level professional counselors. Core requirements for fellowship eligibility
include the National Certified Counselor (NCC) credential</span><sup style="color: inherit; font-family: inherit;">*</sup><span style="color: inherit;">, enrollment
in a CACREP-accredited doctoral program, demonstrated knowledge of and experience
with racially and ethnically diverse populations, and commitment to providing
mental health and substance abuse services to underserved minority populations.
The application deadline is February 28, 2014, and fellowships will be awarded in April 2014.</span></span></div>
