Grant Overview
Priority Outcomes for Arkansas Scholarship Recipients Pursuing Physical Therapy Degrees
The Arkansas Department of Higher Education and the Arkansas Physical Therapy Association have emphasized the need for a diverse workforce in the physical therapy sector. Scholarships for Individual Students Who Are Pursuing a Physical Therapy Degree, funded by a Banking Institution, aim to address this need by supporting students from underrepresented racial and ethnic backgrounds. The primary outcomes targeted by this grant include increasing the number of BIPOC physical therapists in Arkansas and enhancing the cultural competence of the healthcare workforce.

To measure the success of this grant, the Banking Institution and relevant state agencies will track several key performance indicators (KPIs). These include the number of scholarship recipients who complete their physical therapy degrees, the percentage of recipients who identify as BIPOC, and the number of recipients who remain in Arkansas to practice as licensed physical therapists. The Arkansas State Board of Physical Therapy will provide licensure data to help track the long-term outcomes of scholarship recipients.
