Washington State Society of Healthcare Attorneys - Kristin Miles Memorial Student Scholarship

The Kristin Miles Memorial Student Scholarship honors Kristin’s commitment to ensuring that law students have every opportunity to participate in Washington State Society of Healthcare Attorneys (WSSHA) programs. She was ever vigilant in reminding the Board of its obligations to advance the education of future members by making programs accessible to the law student community. While Kristen’s passion, dedication, and always present good humor is irreplaceable, WSSHA would like to honor her by providing this support to a law student each year.
