GB3 Foundation Offers Two Full Scholarships for Bjorem & Bolles July Apraxia Training

The GB3 Foundation, founded by NFL player Garett Bolles, is proud to offer two full scholarships to attend the Bjorem & Bolles Apraxia Education Initiative July training in Colorado. These scholarships reflect a shared commitment to expanding access to high-quality, evidence-based care for children with Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS).

Each scholarship covers training tuition, airfare, and hotel accommodations, removing financial barriers so clinicians can focus on learning and bringing advanced apraxia intervention back to the children and communities they serve.

Scholarship #2: 2025 Full Scholarship for SLPs Serving Title I Students

July 2026 Training | Includes Training, Flight, and Hotel
