Participants with
Financial Hardships
In 2024, we provided a total of $136,738 in need-based scholarships to 138 participants across 5 major trainings. Our average scholarship amount provided was $991, which amounts to nearly 24% of full tuition.
Examples of financial hardships include historical economic injustice, costs for care of loved ones, recent unexpected expenses, high debt, and current salary not meeting the rising cost of living.

Black, Indigenous, People of Color; migrants, asylum seekers, refugees, or immigrants; LGBTQIA+; economically disadvantaged, persons with disabilities; and veterans, first responders, teachers, or active military
