Conference Scholarships!

Good news...

The Family Center for Youth and Children with Special Health Care Needs (Family Center) has put together a conference scholarship program for youth. It is available for all young adults aged 16-26 and you must be eligible for or had been eligible for Children's Special Health Care services. In order for young adults to get more information about their medical condition and about how to be an advocate the Family Center will help pay for you to attend a conference. The scholarship may help pay for conference registrations, mileage, airfare, and lodging expenses while attending the conference. This is a really great opportunity to get the information you want and to stay informed. If you are interested and want to complete an application call the Family Center at their toll-free number 1-800-359-3722 and ask for a youth conference scholarship application. They will explain to you how to complete and what steps to take to return it. If you have questions about the scholarship you can also e-mail the EATT task-force at DCH-EATT@michigan.gov.
