    This includes those in nonprofit organizations, peer support programs, health and human services, education, or caregiving roles—especially where professional development funding is limited or unavailable.

    Whether you are part of a formal organization or simply someone others turn to for help, we welcome applications from people who want to bring GPS to the places they live and work.
  • Individuals with limited financial means.
    If the cost of training would prevent you from participating, we encourage you to request a scholarship.

Real Voices, Real Impact

  • “Now that I’m trained, I’m co-facilitating a bilingual group for caregivers in my neighborhood. The scholarship didn’t just help me—it helped a whole circle of women who now have a space to speak freely, sometimes for the first time in their lives.”

  • “There’s no way I could have joined the training without the scholarship. I’m a single mom and every dollar counts. The fact that GPS made space for people like me meant everything—I didn’t feel like I had to justify my worth.”
    GPS Facilitator Training Scholarship Recipient
  • “When I got the scholarship email, I actually cried. It felt like someone believed in me and my voice, even before I fully believed in it myself. I had never received support like that just for being who I am.”
