ATRI / Jalkanen Foundation Scholarships Available
The Aquatic Therapy & Rehab Institute (ATRI) and the Jalkanen Foundation have full and partial scholarships for education in aquatic therapy or rehab.
Scholarships are given to aquatic therapy practitioners who, for some reason, would not be able to attain needed continuing education or stay in the field of aquatic therapy and rehabilitation. This may be due to special needs, being single parents, having experienced physical or emotional trauma, or other special situations.
The scholarships will help practitioners get education so they can continue to serve others. Scholarships given by the Jalkanen Foundation (a non-profit charitable organization) for ATRI events are matched by ATRI.
To apply, click on Scholarship Application (below) and follow the directions. The deadline is February 8, 2012.
