The Helen Rehr Social Work in Health Care Scholarship

Helen Rehr
Top on the agenda of the Center is the award of a scholarship in the name of the late Dr. Helen Rehr, a preeminent social work leader in health care. The scholarship will comprise an award of $5,000 to a MSW graduate student entering the second year and seeking a practicum and subsequent career in a health care setting.

The establishment of this scholarship is a response to the attrition of experienced professional social workers from employment in health care settings - a trend exacerbated by the Covid 19 pandemic. Not only would the scholarship provide an incentive to graduating social work students, but it would help throw light on the need for social work in health care that Helen Rehr championed.

Interested students are requested to fill out the application and return as required no later than February 15, 2025.
