About Delaware Institute for Healthcare Education Advancement
Mission: Our mission is to encourage Delawareans to pursue education in healthcare by giving scholarships to each winner to spend anyway they want especially on self-care.
The Delaware Institute for Healthcare Education Advancement (DIHEA) was founded and funded by clinicians in Delaware. Our mission is to inspire Delawareans to pursue education in healthcare.
In 2025, eleven outstanding scholars have each been awarded funding to help offset the real-life costs of pursuing a career in healthcare. From transportation and uniforms to licensure testing fees and even that much-needed cup of coffee, these awards are designed to meet students where they are—on their terms.
Our scholars embody resilience, compassion, and dedication as they pursue their journey to become the healthcare providers of tomorrow. We eagerly look forward to having them as a colleague in healthcare and serving the communities of Delaware.
