‼️STUDENT SPOTLIGHT🔦‼️

We would like to recognize a student in our MFT program: Cynthia Wright - Cohort 54!

Cynthia has been informed she is now officially a Fellow of the AAMFT Minority Fellowship Program and the first ever student in the MSFT program at Friends University to receive such a distinction. The Minority Fellowship Program endeavors to expand the delivery of culturally competent mental health and substance abuse services to underserved minority populations and to increase the number of culturally competent Marriage and Family therapists. THE MFP program provides financial support and professional guidance to graduate students pursuing degrees in Marriage and Family therapy and provides a fellowship program open to Marriage and Family Therapy students who are committed to research about and service to ethnic minority and underserved populations.

Congratulations, Cynthia! Your Friends University faculty and peers are extremely proud of your accomplishment!

Last Friday, Cohort 56 participated in the annual Clinical Placement Fair! There were about 20 placement sites that the students had an opportunity to meet with. Following the placement fair, students will go through a matching and interview process to determine their clinical internship site!✅

We are celebrating our 2nd Annual Homecoming this week🎉

Tuesday we decorated classrooms and tonight we had our chili cook-off!

Congratulations to Hannah Peterson on winning the golden spoon!🏆🥇🥄
