ScholarshipsJerry Friedman Scholarship Fund
The Jerry Friedman Scholarship Fund allows those conference attendees who have paid their own way for the conference the ability to submit their name into a drawing to get reimbursed for their registration. The amount of reimbursement varies from year to year based on funding. Those expecting to be reimbursed by their agency, employment, or chapter are not eligible. An attendee who has paid their own registration fee is allowed to apply for both scholarships (the Jerry Friedman and the Deb Formo), but if the same winner is chosen twice, another name will be pulled as the registration fee is only paid once per person, not twice.
