Project Description
This project, a partnership between the School of Social Work and Lilly Family School of Philanthropy, creates four competitive awards for graduate student-led, diversity-related projects that 1) incorporate a local non-profit organization, and 2) further diversity/acceptance at IUPUI. Selected projects will result in a scholarship award to the selected student, stipend to the partnering organization, and funding for project-related expenses. Students will gain project management training/experience in a real-world setting, strengthened connections to community organizations, and increased exposure to underrepresented groups and diverse individuals. A committee comprised of faculty and staff from both schools will oversee the awarded projects.
