2026 FEC Communications Scholarship Application

NCPHA is thrilled to announce that we will be continuing the FEC Communications Scholarship Program for 20 public health professionals to attend this year's Communications Program on September 29 in Concord, NC. This initiative is designed to provide financial support to individuals from diverse backgrounds and sectors interested in attending the program but may face financial constraints. Anyone involved in public health communications within a governmental agency, non-profit and academia are encouraged to apply - including PIOs, health educators, outreach, admin, and more.

In addition to free registration, scholarship recipients will receive a $250 stipend toward hotel accommodation and travel for a one-night stay.
