EASi Therapy and Diagnostic Services will award $1,000 scholarships to graduate students in the fields of speech language pathology and physical and occupational therapy as part of its 25th anniversary celebration.
“We have been supporting students at UNM throughout our 25 years, and want to encourage those who plan to stay in New Mexico to provide services to children and adults with special needs. It’s also a way of saying ‘thank you’ because so many of our 150 employees are graduates of UNM,” said Gail Beam, chief administrative officer for EASi.
The students receiving the supplemental cash scholarship are within a year of finishing their program and plan to stay in New Mexico to work after graduation. Three occupational therapy, four speech language pathology and five physical therapy students from UNM will be presented with scholarships Tuesday. April 19 at the UNM Health Sciences Center.
