About the RAISE Initiative

The University of Montana (UM) School Psychology Graduate Training Program received a $3.75 million grant from the U.S. Department of Education to increase the number of qualified school psychologists across Montana’s highest-need areas. This grant will provide specialized training to graduate students at UM, undergraduate students at Salish Kootenai College (SKC) and UM, high school students through Montana’s Digital Academy, and Montana school psychologists.
