SCHOLARSHIP INFORMATION
 Through the generous donation of members, and proceeds from COAFCC’s annual Silent Auction, we are able to provide a limited number of partial scholarships for the Chapter’s two annual conferences, as well as full scholarships for the regional educational events, such as the NoCo and SoCo series of dinner speakers.

3. What Are the Income Guidelines for Eligibility for a Scholarship?

Applicants who serve non-profit, “poverty law” organizations in family law; those in practice less than three years; as well as Court staff below judicial officer level; are automatically considered to meet the income guidelines. Other economic criteria listed on the submitted scholarship application are considered separately by the Scholarship Selection Committee.

COAFCC fully endorses the diversity criteria described by the AFCC parent organization, to include age, gender, ethnicity, disability, culture/economic factors, religion, sexual orientation, and geographic region of the state. The scholarship application also asks if there is anything else related to diversity that the applicant wishes the Committee to consider.
