The Sonoma County Mayors' Committee on Employment of People with Disabilities started funding a scholarship program in 2010 with one $250 Scholarship awarded to a Santa Rosa Junior College student. In 2011, two $500 Scholarships were awarded to a student attending Empire College of Business and a student attending the Santa Rosa Junior College. This scholarship program is for a student with a disability to help further their education/training. The students awarded scholarships are honored at the Annual Employers Best Practices Award Breakfast on October 26, 2011.
