Subject: [NLPA Members] NLPA Student Travel Scholarship--Application Included!


Saludos NLPA Familia,



I am happy to announce that the speakers for this year’s Leadership Academy, the presentation that is required for all Student Travel Scholarship recipients but is open to all student attendees at this year’s Conferencia in San Diego, CA, will be Drs. Lillian Comas-Diaz and Milton Fuentes, two prominent figures in Latina/o Psychology.



As a reminder, we are now accepting scholarship applications to help offset student members’ travel expenses!  Attached you will find the application form for the student travel scholarship; it can also be found on both the NLPA and the conference websites.  Please forward this information to any students you think would be interested in applying, or to other colleagues who could forward this to their students.



To help potential applicants make arrangements and decisions about attending the conference, I want to provide them with some information to keep in mind.  Scholarships will be in the amount of $300, the cost of the regular registration for student members.  However, scholarships will not be distributed until the conference, therefore, they can think of it as a sort of “reimbursement” for the registration cost.  As such, if students are committed to attending the conference, I would strongly encourage them to register, a requirement of eligibility, as soon as possible (remember, early registration ends July 14, 2018).  While the goal is to have decisions announced by September 3, 2018, prior to the end date of regular registration, this cannot be guaranteed.  Please encourage students keep this information in mind as they make their travel arrangements and decisions about attending the conference.



To receive the scholarship, recipients are  required to: 1) be current members of NLPA no later than September 10, 2018; 2) register for and attend the conference; 3) give back to the organization by donating two hours of their time during the conference; and 4) attend the Leadership Academy.  The special Leadership Academy will be conducted by two prominent figures in Latina/o Psychology and will take place during the conference.  While this presentation is open to all student attendees, it will be required for scholarship recipients, as this is where the checks will be distributed.  The only exception that will be made to this is if you are listed on the conference program as having a presentation at the same time.



Also, it is imperative that students make note of the deadline for the application (4:00 p.m. PST on July 18, 2018) and that they be sure to follow the directions listed on the application.  Out of fairness to their fellow student member applicants, late/incomplete applications and those not received in the appropriate e-mail account will not be reviewed.



If you or they have any questions about the application process, please feel free to contact me at vminchala at fullerton.edu.



Thank you for your assistance in supporting our students!



Sincerely,



Valerie Minchala, Ph.D.
