MPSA will provide a grant of $500 for members to go to Washington, DC to participate in COSSA's 2019 Social Science Advocacy Day (April 30 - May 1, 2019). Those selected as grant recipients are responsible for their own travel, lodging, meeting registration, and incidentals. In order to receive the advocacy day travel grant, attendees must be U.S. citizens and submit a Hill visit feedback sheet to MPSA in addition to any requirements from COSSA. Failure to show proof of Hill visits will prevent the disbursement of grant monies.

University of Alabama; Auburn University; University of Alabama at Birmingham; Yale University; University of Hawaii; University of Kansas; Kansas State University, University of Mississippi; Mississippi State University; University of Missouri; Washington University in St. Louis; SUNY Purchase; University of Toledo; Oklahoma State; University of Oklahoma; Texas Christian University; University of Vermont
