Scholarships

Two separate scholarship funds have been established for this event.

LGC Scholarship Fund

The Local Government Commission (LGC) sponsored its annual scholarship fund to offset conference registration fees for individuals representing small nonprofits, community-based and grassroots organizations, local policymakers, health officials, school board members, school superintendents and facilities staff. As of 12/22/09, all of the scholarships available through this fund have been awarded.

Diversity Scholarship Fund (DSF)

As of January 26th, all of the scholarships available through the Diversity Scholarship Fund (DSF) have been awarded.

The Diversity Scholarship Fund was established to assist conference organizers in accomplishing two very important goals: [1] more effectively engaging leaders from disadvantaged communities in the conference by assisting them with covering their registration fees and some of their travel costs to participate; and [2]diversifying the conference audience in an effort to ensure that it is more reflective of our nation’s real population.
