- Child Care Grants for Parents with Young Children
Application Deadline: Wednesday, October 9th, 2019
Applications are invited for grants to facilitate access to the APS-GEC meeting in October. Grants of up to $400 per individual or family will be available to assist GEC registrants who bring young children to the meeting or who incur extra expense in leaving dependents at home (i.e., extra daycare, babysitting, or caregiver services), or who need to fund additional activities or services to address accessibility issues.
Applications must include a credible estimate of the expected expenses. Expenses must be documented by receipts. If the number of requests exceeds the funding available, we will give preference to applicants in the early stages of their careers, especially postdocs and graduate students.
A caregiver room will also be provided with snacks, toys, and refrigerator. This is in the SHIELD room on the 2nd floor.
Reimbursement covers travel expenses (car or public transportation) or other costs to be considered, but does not cover meals. Receipts for reimbursement must be received by Friday, December 6th, 2019. Copies of actual receipts must be submitted. Please submit applications and reimbursement requests to GEC at <gaseous.electronics.conference@gmail.com>
