The Scholarship began when Huerta returned her honorarium for a speaking engagement at the University of Utah.  She asked that the money be used to establish a scholarship that encourages young women's engagement in grass roots activism.  Generous community members, who value her vision and practice Huerta's committment to social justice, have since then contributed to the fund.  Recipients of the award will recieve $1,000 and engage in a semester-long community-engagement project.

Requirements:

The recipient will be paired with a community partner, or continue to work with an existing partner, for at least one semester, while enrolled at the University of Utah.  During tenure of the award, the recipient will enroll in a one-semester course that provides a thoughtful framework for reflection on the practice of leadership, always with an awareness of gender dynamics.
