Congratulations to the 2025 Jennifer Corinne Hrobuchak Endowed Scholarship Awardee!
Miami University student Jada Kramer has been named the inaugural recipient of the Jennifer Corinne Hrobuchak Endowed Scholarship.
Currently pursuing a dual major in Public Health (Policy) and Psychology with a minor in Gerontology, Jada maintains a 4.0 GPA and is part of Miami’s prestigious Prodesse Scholars Program. Her passion for prevention and advocacy shines through in her work as a Mental Health Peer Educator, Undergraduate Research Assistant, and Chief of Staff for Miami University’s ASPIRE office, where she coordinates student advocacy efforts at the state and national levels.
“Jada represents exactly the kind of changemaker this scholarship was created to support,” said LaMarca. “Jennifer believed deeply in justice and making a difference in people’s lives. It’s incredibly meaningful to see that legacy continue through Jada’s work.”
In addition to her academic achievements, Jada has interned with PreventionFIRST!, supporting community coalitions with substance misuse prevention strategies, and will study diplomacy and human rights across Europe in 2025, engaging with international courts and NGOs.
