Family Medicine Foundation of Michigan is accepting applications from family medicine resident and student members of MAFP interested in being considered for a scholarship to attend the 2019 Michigan Family Medicine Conference & Expo, August 1-4, at Shanty Creek Resort in Bellaire.

The student/resident scholarship covers:
  • Conference registration fee (amount is dependent upon one- or multi-day registration)
  • Access to conference sessions (with the exception of the pre-conference and Knowledge Self-Assessment, which require payment of additional fees)
  • Admission to the Expo Hall
  • The following meals:
    • Hors d'oeuvres and beverages at the Welcome Reception on Thursday, August 1
    • Breakfast, lunch, and refreshment breaks on Friday, August 2
    • Breakfast, lunch, refreshment breaks, and hors d'oeuvres and beverages at the cocktail hour on Saturday, August 3
    • Breakfast on Sunday, August 4
The scholarship is intended to offset the registration fee for attending the conference; therefore, scholarship recipients are responsible for costs associated with transportation, lodging, and meals not included in the conference registration fee. The number of scholarships available is dependent upon scholarship donations received, as this scholarship program is 100% funded by donations.

ELIGIBILITY
  • Must be a family medicine resident or student member of Michigan Academy of Family Physicians.
  • Attend one day, multiple days, or the full conference - click here for the conference schedule.
