Scholarship Request

We are pleased to offer limited scholarships to attend our in-person symposium, held in Oakland, CA Friday & Saturday March 1-2. Scholarship amounts will be considered and awarded based on need and available funds. Once awarded, we will ask that you register within two weeks to secure your registration at the discounted rate. We will honor as many scholarship requests as we are able, and will review them on a rolling basis. We encourage you to submit your application as early as possible as scholarship funds are limited. All scholarship requests should be submitted no later than February 2nd. Please complete all sections. We are collecting relevant demographic and identity data for reporting and evaluation and in an effort to lift up BIPOC and other voices not often heard in education settings. Application questions can be directed to symposium@oaklandliteracycoalition.org
