Scholarships
Since its inception, NCCHC Foundation has awarded nearly 300 scholarships to in-person and virtual conferences.
The NCCHC Foundation scholarship program is open to students in correctional health care-related fields and early career professionals with up to three years of experience in correctional health care. Our goal is to create enthusiasm for the field, expose scholarship winners to NCCHC standards and commitment to patient care, and raise the level of education in the field.
The scholarship application portal will open for the NCCHC 2027 Spring Conference on Correctional Health Care in December
If you’re an early-career professional in your first two years of correctional health care or a student and passionate about improving patient care behind the walls, this is your opportunity to learn, connect, and grow. The conference takes place April 3-5. Scholarships include mentorship, travel stipend, and registration fees.
These Future Leaders Are Ready to Impress
Scholarship winners come to correctional health care through many paths: an incarcerated family member, an inspirational teacher, a random part-time job, a deep desire to help people at their lowest point. Conference attendance shows them how to raise expectations for themselves and their coworkers; what quality correctional health care means; what the leaders in the field are saying and doing.
