Every Experience Counts Stipend Program
In conjunction with the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), an agency of the Department of Health and Human Services, Herzing University is proud to award the Every Experience Counts grant to a limited number of qualifying MSN-PMHNP students per semester. Herzing University was awarded funding by HRSA through the Behavioral Health Workforce Education and Training (BHWET) grant.
Every Experience Counts Scholar Initiative aims to increase the number of behavioral health professionals while also improving the quality of the workforce, thereby increasing access to behavioral health services.
Recipients will participate in an integrative healthcare project in a medically underserved area of the community as an Every Experience Counts Scholar.
