With the addition of the Post 9/11 Bill, financial aid opportunities for veterans and active duty military students have increased tremendously. Unfortunately, navigating the complex financial aid system remains difficult and time-consuming, causing many students to lose out on valuable financial help. To bridge this gap, publichealth.org has created a financial aid guide for military service members and their families.

Overview:
"What is the relationship between Equality and Justice?" Answering this question requires considering each of these principles and analyzing the relationship between them. To truly explore this question in an essay that is between 500 -800 words, you’ll need to go beyond "dictionary definitions," and express your understanding and reasoning about the connection between these two principles. This reasoning involves a combination of observation, experience, and some pretty "big ideas." What does it take to understand them? To build toward and maintain them? To see them with regard to each other? Why is this relationship important? Age/Grade Requirement: Ages 14-19 Amount: Grand Prize $7500 Deadline: April 15, 2021 at 11:59 pm PT |
