NDSS Adult Summit Scholarship Application

The NDSS Adult Summit is an interactive conference that discusses the topic of aging and Down syndrome through a whole-person, comprehensive approach. This content overlaps ages, subject areas, and NDSS programs. The Summit will address the needs of teens and adults with Down syndrome with practical resources, materials, and educational opportunities for individuals, families, caregivers, and professionals. We have a small budget to offer scholarships for participants who face significant financial barriers to attending the conference and are unable to secure support or group discounts from their local Down syndrome group.   
  
Before applying for a scholarship, we encourage you to contact your local Down syndrome group as they may offer financial assistance to attend the conference or be taking advantage of the NDSS group discount for 10 or more registrants.   
  
Completion of this application does not guarantee a full or partial scholarship award. This application will close at 11:59PM on Thursday, October 5. Applicants will be notified of scholarship decisions by Tuesday, October 10.
  
If you have any questions about scholarship opportunities, group rates, or need help connecting to your local Down syndrome group, please email us at adultsummit@ndss.org. Additionally, please email us at adultsummit@ndss.org if you would benefit from any other accommodation to make this process more accessible to you.
