Scholarships

The Washington Respiratory Care Foundation provides financial support to students attending accredited Respiratory Care programs in the state leading to licensure as a respiratory care practitioner, or to licensed practitioners working in Washington State who are enrolled in Bachelor’s, Master’s or Doctoral degree programs.

The scholarships will be awarded each year at a special reception to be held by the WRCF at the Annual Respiratory Care Conference and Scientific Assembly held in April.
