Child Care Grant

Limited funds are available and preference is given to applicants in the early stages of their career.  As a secondary criterion, preference will be given to applicants who explain clearly why a grant to support childcare, dependent care or their own assistance is necessary.  To apply, please fill in the Child Care Grant Form and email it to Christine Card, [email protected], by November 16th.
