Accessibility

We acknowledge that conferences are both extremely important for professional development and growth, and can be cost prohibitive to attend. If cost is a barrier to you, please consider applying for a scholarship with NY Health Foundations Healthy Food Healthy Lives Program to cover the cost of attendance and lodging. We are also continuing to seek sponsors to offer direct scholarships to offset the cost of attendance and will advertise them if available.
