Scholarship funds have been available for many years through a contract between the Governor’s Institute on Substance Abuse and the North Carolina Division of Mental Health, Developmental Disabilities and Substance Abuse Services. Beginning in January 2011, these funds will be made available directly to graduate programs (master’s degree) approved by the North Carolina Substance Abuse Professional Practice Board. Candidates will be selected by faculty based on criteria of financial need and academic excellence. To locate a program near you see the listing under Graduate Programs on this website.
