Diversity Scholarship Program
[cid:[cid:image002.jpg@01C9DFA2.8C8A2710]Since 1992, the Diversity Scholarship P
rogram (DSP) has provided financial assistance (which can covers registrati
on and shared lodging) to more than 1,100 individuals from diverse racial,
ethnic, economic and cultural backgrounds. The goal of the Diversity Schola
rship Program is to increase the diversity of participants at the annual Na
tional Preservation Conference and in the preservation movement. The Progra
m provides financial assistance to approximately 60 community leaders from
diverse social, economic, racial, ethnic and cultural backgrounds to attend
the National Preservation Conference. Through interactive sessions, presen
tations, informal gatherings, and tours of the host city and surrounding ar
eas, participants will learn the necessary tools to strengthen their commit
ment and effectiveness in preserving historic places and revitalizing commu
nities.
The National Trust seeks culturally diverse applicants whose attendance at
the Conference will benefit their communities and whose commitment to histo
ric preservation will be reinforced by their participation. Recipients will
have an opportunity to express their perspectives during the Conference an
d to take advantage of National Trust programs after the Conference.
