New Grant Opportunity

MMHPS is a project that is funded through the U.S. Department of Education awarded over 5 years (2023-2027) to the Southwest Center. MMHPS will allow 50 participants that hold a current teaching certificate or are recommended by their district to earn a Masters Degree in School Counseling. The 50 participants will be divided into two cohorts of 25 who will obtain Masters Degrees in School Counseling from Lindenwood University. This project will enable our districts to attract and retain highly qualified staff to meet the mental health care needs of their districts and communities.

• Work in a SWC member school district

• Have the recommendation of the district superintendent and building level principal

• Fully understand the project requirements and pledge commitment to fulfill all grant requirements

• Pledge commitment to work in a SWC member district for 3 years after certification (or will be required to pay back all or a portion of grant funding received)
