The Jeffrey Grove, DO, LGBTQ+ Pride Scholarship in the amount of $10,000 will be awarded annually to recognize an Osteopathic medical student committed to a course of study to better understand and address the unique healthcare needs of the LGBTQ+ community and how such needs can be addressed through Osteopathic medicine.

Dr. Grove is the founder and inspiration behind numerous LGBTQ+ expansion initiatives across the country, including the AOF’s recently launched LGBTQ+ Health Equity & Inclusion Fund, which aims to better understand and address the healthcare needs of the LGBTQ+ community through educational scholarships, CME training, and diversity-enriching programs.

In 2021, Dr. Grove pledged $1 million to support the educational scholarship component of the AOF’s LGBTQ+ Health Equity & Inclusion Fund.
