<p> The purpose ˙or this proposal was to write a grant to develop a stipend program for master's level social work (MSW) intern students to address the unique needs of Spanishspeaking Latino lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) population with special attention to older individuals. This one year stipend program was also designed to address the stigma and discrimination of delivery service to Latino LGBT community. The grant will provide real world practice, educate, train, and enhance the social work interns' clinical skills to become culturally competent professionals. The five MSW students will be placed at the host agency, BIENEST AR, located in Los Angeles, California. The Hispanics in Philanthropy was identified after conducting extensive research as a funding source of this stipend program for LGBT population. The actual submission and/or funding of this grant were not a requirement for the successful completion of the project.</p>
