2022 INTERNSHIP TRAVEL SCHOLARSHIP WINNER

I could not have made the move from Texas to Colorado without this scholarship! As a Latina immigrant and first-generation student in America, there have been many barriers to overcome in this journey to become a psychologist, many of them of a financial nature. Internship is a great year of personal and professional development, but I needed a little help getting there and the National Register of Health Service Psychologists provided that! I look forward to seeing the impact of this year on the rest of my career!
