Invitation to Apply for Dr. Janet Klein Scholarship
Thanks to the family of Dr. Janet Klein and other generous donors, scholarship money is available to help you attend the Advanced and Certification Weeklong.
JANET KLEIN
The International Focusing Institute and Dr. Klein's family established a fund to continue her legacy in the Focusing world. This scholarship promotes her vision of an international community where anyone with a passion for Focusing has access to the training and connections available at the Weeklong.
Applicants should:
- demonstrate commitment and capacity to spread Focusing
- be members of The International Focusing Institute (preferably having been members throughout their training)
- be appropriate for attendance at the Weeklong, ready for certification or already certified (with some rare exceptions)
- need financial assistance to attend
- note that Coordinators and Coordinators-in-Training are not eligible, as they automatically receive a 50% reduction off tuition
