Students Selected for the John T. Merrell Scholarship
July 30, 2021
Two scholars were selected to receive financial support from The John T. Merrell Scholarship Fund as they continue their studies toward careers in the behavioral health professions. The Merrell family established this fund, in honor of a beloved husband and father, to support students who will become leaders in their fields, serve our community and society, and advance new technologies and innovations in the prevention and treatment of mental illness.
“We know that this fund honors John’s memory. Our partnership with Palm Health Foundation helps us work toward goals that are deeply personal to our family.” – Jill Merrell
