More NEONP Student Scholarships Coming in Fall 2011

Each year, the Northeast Ohio Nurse Practitioners provides the Joan German Scholarship Fund. Last year, NEONP expanded this scholarship program and now makes annual $1,000 awards each to two deserving, eligible NP students.

NEONP's scholarship program is named in memory of Joan German who was an OB/GYN Nurse Practitioner who truly believed in and practiced better healthcare for women.  Joan served as NEONP's Program Committee Chair for many years, and we are proud to name this scholarship program after her.

The deadline to submit scholarship application materials for this year was October 30, 2010.  The next application process and deadline will be during the autumn of 2011. To review last year's Joan German Scholarship application package, click here.
