Continuing the Tradition
Our scholarship recipients are dedicated to improving the accessibility of mental and behavioral healthcare and clearly demonstrate the character, energy, and courage exemplified by Dr. Lois Price Spratlen, RN, PhD, FAAN.
Meeting the Need
The concurrent rise in depression and substance abuse issues has ignited conversation about mental health and destigmatized diagnosis and treatment. Psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioners are urgently needed to provide a holistic approach to mental and behavioral healthcare.
If you can’t attend the Scholarship & Awards Breakfast, please consider making a gift to the Lois Price Spratlen Foundation to empower the next generation of dynamic, courageous, and inspired nurse leaders.
Many thanks to our sponsors!
