PILD First Timers Scholarship Applications Portal Now Open from December 10 to February 1

The 2020 Public Issues Leadership Development (PILD) Conference will be April 5-8, 2020 at the Hyatt Regency Crystal City in Arlington, VA. Past PILD attendees have found this professional development experience very valuable, so be sure to read their reflections on the NEAFCS website.

PILD first-time attendees may be eligible for one of the twenty $455 NEAFCS 1^st Timer's scholarships. Contact your affiliate President if you wish to be considered for the state PILD team and this award. Only one scholarship is allocated per affiliate. The scholarships are awarded on a first come, first serve basis among those who complete the application as directed. Attendees are required to submit a reflection article and photo after participating.

The PILD scholarship applications are collected online here. The PILD conference is sponsored by the Joint Council of Extension Professionals (JCEP).

JCEP Extension Leadership Conference Scholarship Application Now Open

**You must be the President, President-Elect or approved designee of an active Affiliate of NEAFCS in order to apply for this scholarship.**

One of the primary goals of NEAFCS is to develop leadership skills in our members. With that goal in mind, the NEAFCS Board of Directors established the JCEP Extension Leadership Conference Scholarship to encourage attendance by Affiliate Presidents, President-elects or other emerging leaders. 

Recognizing that many of our Affiliates don’t have the resources to send a representative, the NEAFCS Board of Directors is offering scholarships to subsidize the cost of attendance. Please see the JCEP Extension Leadership Conference Scholarship guidelines and application here for consideration.

Scholarships will be offered on a first come, first serve basis with preference given to first time attendees who complete the application by December 15.  After this date, scholarships will be awarded based on date received. A total of 35 scholarships are available for 2020 with only one (1) being awarded per Affiliate.
