FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM FOR FAMILY + COMMUNITY LEADERS
As part of the New England Secondary School Consortium’s commitment to improving equity, access, and diversity, we are offering a limited number of reduced-price registrations to community-based nonprofit organizations and parent or community leaders who either support youth or work in partnership with their local schools*. Applicants will be asked to demonstrate financial need and articulate how they anticipate the conference will benefit their work, organization, schools, and/or community.
Applications for financial assistance are due no later than 5:00 p.m. on February 13, 2018. All applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis, and applicants will be notified as soon as their application is either approved or declined. A committee will review all applications for alignment with the mission, values, and goals of the New England Secondary School Consortium. Reduced-price registrations will be offered until available funds are expended—financial assistance is not guaranteed for all applicants.
We sincerely thank the Nellie Mae Education Foundation, which generously provided funding for this program.
