Amelia Craver Special Lecture
Thanks to the leadership and generosity of Amelia Craver, Class of 1988, the USC Genetic Counseling Program has developed an endowment to benefit the education of genetic counselors, an investment into the future. Genetic counseling graduate students directly benefit from interest income that supports their educational experience.
Year after year, Missy Craver has continued to support our growth, and as we reach a 10-year milestone (2013-2023), the Genetic Counseling Endowment "Looks Like A Million Bucks". With over $750,000 invested, we are closing in on our goal of a Million Dollar Genetic Counseling Program Endowment!
As a tribute to her vision for the future, the program sponsors the Amelia Craver Special Lecture in Genetic Counseling. Each year, students, faculty and friends of the Genetic Counseling Program benefit from a special speaker to challenge and broaden our perspectives on genetic counseling.
