Read about some of our most recent scholarship recipients.

Since 2005, the NBCC Foundation has worked to bridge the gap in mental health resources in a variety of areas. Over the last 15 years, one of the most integral parts of the Foundation's mission to leverage the power of counseling by strategically focusing resources for positive change is the Foundation's Scholarship Program. Over the years, the Foundation has awarded $875,000 in scholarships to counseling students committed to working with military, rural, and other underserved or never-served populations around the world and over $360,000 in capacity-building initiatives impacting military, rural, and international communities.

The work of the Foundation is made possible through the support of invested and dedicated individuals who want to see services expanded and see gaps bridged for those most in need.

Contributions given on GivingTuesday, Nov. 30, 2021, will specifically help fund additional scholarships for master's-level counseling students committed to bridging the gap in areas most in need. To support and empower more counseling students and professionals, donate to the NBCC Foundation Scholarship Program. Thank you!

The NBCC Foundation works to improve the mental health of the underserved and never-served throughout the world by leveraging the power of counseling by strategically focusing resources for positive change. Scholarships, fellowships, and capacity-building grants, are our primary tools for accomplishing our objectives. The Foundation's strategy is to award scholarships to individuals pursuing careers as professional counselors who are affiliated with high-priority populations and commit to serving them after graduation. Capacity-building grants fund expansion efforts to increase mental health resources in rural and minority communities where access to mental health care is extremely limited.

Since 2010, the NBCC Foundation has awarded over $875,000 in scholarships and over $9,000,000 in grant funded fellowships to master's- and doctoral-level counseling students committed to working with underserved communities around the world. 

Help us continue to support counselors and future counselors bridge the gap in mental health services for those most in need.
