In 2023 WMHCA started The Dr. Ellen K. Carruth Diversity & Inclusivity in Counseling Scholarship. The scholarship was named after a past beloved board member and fierce advocate of diversity and inclusion for all marginalized individuals. In 2026, WMHCA announced the launch of the Washington Mental Health Counselors Foundation, an extension of WMHCA dedicated to supporting the future of the counseling profession. The mission of the WMHC Foundation is to expand WMHCA’s scholarship efforts by providing meaningful financial support to individuals pursuing a graduate degree in mental health counseling. Rooted in WMHCA's commitment to Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (JEDI), it prioritizes reducing barriers for those historically underrepresented in the mental health field. |
WMHCA's scholarships are now through the Foundation a 501(c)(3). Donations are tax deductible as allowed under the law. |
Committed to Transparency The WMHCA Foundation has earned the Candid Gold Seal of Transparency, recognizing our commitment to sharing information about our mission, leadership, programs, and organizational operations. We believe transparency and accountability are essential to building trust with the individuals and communities we serve. |
