As you know, the 2010 NAALJ Annual Meeting is being held in Malibu, California this year, October 10-14, 2010. Once again, NYSALJA will be offering two grants to assist a NYSALJA member in attending conference.

The first grant is a NAALJ/NYSALJA jointly sponsored $500 grant and waiver of the conference registration fee. The second is a NYSALJA sponsored stipend of $500. The deadline to apply for either of these grants is fast approaching: August 16, 2010.

Grant recipients must meet the following criteria:

  1. the recipient must be a current paid member of NYSALJA;
  2. the recipient must register for and attend the 2010 NAALJ Annual Meeting and Conference ;
  3. the recipient must not have received a grant from NYSALJA or NAALJ in the last three years.

To be considered for the grants, please submit a written request to me (e-mail or fax), which must be received by 5:00 PM on Monday, August 16, 2010.

The two winners will be randomly drawn from the names submitted, and notified prior to the conference. The winner of the NAALJ/NYSALJA grant will receive reimbursement at the conference. The winner of the NYSALJA grant will be reimbursed $500 within approximately 2 weeks of receipt of proof of conference attendance.

Any questions should be directed to me through our contact page.

Thank you and good luck.

Hon. James T. McClymonds
President, NYSALJA
