NASW Foundation National Programs
Jane B. Aron Doctoral
Fellowship
The Jane Baerwald Aron
Doctoral Fellowship Program provides partial support to social work
doctoral candidates who are engaged in dissertation research in health
care policy and practice. The fellowship program was established
in 1987 as a tribute to Aron, who was a leader in health care policy
and education.
Jane B. Aron, who died
in 1983, devoted her career to creating social policy that was responsive
to people's needs. She was best known through her longtime association
with New York's Mount Sinai Medical Center and Mills College in
California.
The Aron Fellowship is
awarded based on the projected annual earnings to the fund and contributions.
