Child Protection Scholarship

The CRCF Child Protection Scholarship was created in honor or Mr. Manuel Batshaw who bequeathed a generous donation to the Centre in 2017. He was a Canadian social worker best known for leading a provincially mandated committee in the 1970s that studied the situation of youth in care and recommended many of the principles and practices that form the basis of Quebec Youth Protection practice. His contribution was commemorated in the name of the Batshaw Youth and Famiy Centres (now part of the CIUSSS Ouest-de-l’Île-de-Montréal).

Child Protection Scholarships are available to any person pursuing an undergraduate or graduate degree in the School of Social Work at ۲ݮƵ University on this subject matter. This scholarship aims to provide financial assistance to cover the cost of attending a conference or to complete a research project (including community collaborative initiatives, completing an independent study project or tutorial) on the topic of child protection. Students must provide a brief report of the conference proceedings or research findings upon completion. Two scholarships of $500 are awarded per academic year and are non-renewable.
