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 our webinar programs.

SCHOLARSHIP APPLICATION

1. How to Apply for a Scholarship?

Please complete the application questions that are found at the bottom of this page. Your application must be received by the deadline date in the program announcement, and you will be notified of the Scholarship Selection Committee’s decision within seven days. If you are applying for a partial scholarship to one of the COAFCC annual conferences, regardless whether you receive it, you will still qualify for the Early Bird discount, so long as you register for that conference within five days of notification from the Scholarship Selection Committee.

An applicant may receive a maximum of two webinar full scholarships and one annual conference partial scholarship in any two consecutive year period.

2. How Many Scholarships Can an Applicant Receive?

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.

4. Diversity Criteria Considered for Scholarships?

5. References Requested for Conferences?

The Committee requests the name and contact information for a professional reference for conference scholarship applications.
