Scholarships Available tor SRTS

The Southeast Recreational Therapy Symposium (SRTS), Inc. is excited to offer scholarships for the Southeast Recreational Therapy Symposium to be held April 9-11, 2014 at the Sheraton Convention Center in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. The theme for this year's symposium is “Evidenced Based Recreational Therapy: An Opportunity to Learn, Grow, Practice. ” In addition to the student scholarships, SRTS is pleased to again offer a scholarship for first-year practitioners. The scholarships are intended to make the Symposium available to those students and first-year practitioners who 1) have a need for financial assistance, and 2) demonstrate potential to use the knowledge gained to enhance professional practice. The scholarships are "working" scholarships. Those who receive scholarships will assist with various aspects of administering the Symposium. SRTS believes this experience will further enhance the student’s or the practitioner’s professional competencies. The scholarships will provide complimentary registration and housing, but will not cover meals (except any included in the registration) and transportation.
