Gifts & Scholarship

Awards from SGA-MHJAC 

Since 2020, Sensory Based Stress Management Initiatives (Tapping@GT), have received campus & system wide support.  Thanks to the Student Government Association’s Mental Health Joint Allocation Committee (MHJAC) funding in 2023 and 2024, we are encouraged to continue to offer the services on our campuses, and to expand our outreach to the student population.  If there is something that speaks to you below, please reach out as we would love to share them with you.

*MHJAC also invites you to reach out to them directly with your own funding proposals to support student mental well-being.

Guidelines

The intention of MHJAC’s gift is to fund projects that support student well being.  As research is rapidly validating the impact and value of body-based approaches to stress management, campus partners and student leaders are sought after to expand the awareness and understanding of these theories and practices.  Once applicant’s have enjoyed the benefits of these scholarships, you are encouraged to pay it forward.
