The Pisacano Scholars Leadership Program provides educational programs, leadership training and funding for outstanding medical students for a four-year period beginning in the the final year of medical school and through three years of residency training in Family Medicine. The Foundation is especially interested in students who exhibit the highest levels of commitment, skill, compassion and leadership. Although the scholarships are intended to reduce the level of medical-school-related debt, financial need is not a consideration.
