APF Queen-Nellie Evans Scholarship

Deadline: January 31, 2023

The APF Queen-Nellie Evans scholarship funds a scholarship to a graduate student from an underrepresented group who has a demonstrated financial need and is committed to improving the disparities in societal structures and issues that negatively impact communities of colour, particularly communities of African descent, particularly:

• root causes
• interventions
• direct or indirect effects on individual mental and physical health and well-being
• broader negative social or psychological effects on the impacted population

Preference is given to those who:

• are preparing for a career in academia, clinical service delivery, or public policy;
• see their work as helping to improve the condition of marginalized communities after the completion of their graduate studies;
• are members of the communities they seek to serve; or
• have demonstrated experience serving marginalized communities.

One $4,000 scholarship is offered annually to a graduate student from an underrepresented group with a demonstrated financial need and is committed to improving the disparities in societal structures and issues that negatively impact communities of colour, particularly those of African descent.
