The One Family Scholars Program recently adopted a new, more collaborative model. Our ten years of experience in operating the program have shown that support from partnering community organizations has been critical to the success of our One Family Scholars. In addition to identifying and assessing participants' readiness for the One Family Scholars Program, community partner organizations support their selected One Family Scholars throughout their tenure in the program.

Prospective candidates must be sponsored by a partnering community organization in order to apply to and participate in the One Family Scholars Program.
