Resident Scholarships
Resident Summit
Grounded Solutions Network is hosting its first ever Resident Summit this year in Oakland. This all-day event (Monday, October 9th) is a chance for residents of Grounded Solutions Network member organizations to connect with each other. The Resident Summit will be led primarily by residents that are a part of Grounded Solutions’ Resident Ambassador Program. The following topics will be covered in the Resident Summit:
1.) How to tell your story for maximum impact
2.) Board Leadership and resident roles
3.) Resident engagement
We will be offering scholarships of up to $1,000 for member organizations to offset the cost of bringing their residents to the conference.
Resident conference scholarships are available to 2017/2018 Grounded Solutions Network Members. Awards are given by organization (up to $1000 in value per organization); it is up to each organization to determine how to distribute their award.
All applicants (Grounded Solutions Network Members) will be notified no later than August 31, and members will have until September 12 to register their resident for the conference, or risk forfeiting their award.

Research Scholarships - Opportunity Closed
Grounded Solutions Network’s national conference, Intersections 2017, is taking place in Oakland, CA from October 9-12, 2017. We believe that where we live matters. Everyone should be able to live in a place that offers opportunity: access to jobs, parks, public transit, quality schools and stable homes. Strong and inclusive communities provide the foundation that people and families need to thrive– now and for future generations.
This year a limited number of conference scholarships are available to researchers doing exciting, innovative work to advance housing policies and programs that create inclusive and equitable communities and promote and protect lasting affordability.
The deadline to apply for conference scholarships is July 26, 2017. All applicants will be notified no later than August 1, and scholarship recipients will have until August 31 to register for the conference or risk forfeiting their award.

Member Scholarships - Opportunity Closed
Conference scholarships are currently available to 2017/2018 Grounded Solutions Network Members. Awards are given by organization; it is up to each organization to determine how to distribute their award.
All applicants will be notified no later than August 1, and recipients will have until August 25 to register for the conference, or risk forfeiting their award.
Award checks will be distributed post conference, once attendance at the full conference and/or 2017 Training Institute has been confirmed. Recipients will need to register and pay for the conference in advance, in addition to covering travel and accommodation costs.
If your participation at the conference is contingent upon receiving a scholarship, you should not register for the conference until you are notified of an award.
Funds are limited and priority will be given to organizations that did not receive an award for either of the past two National Conferences (2015 & 2016). Grounded Solutions Network’s goal is to use the available scholarship funds to bring as many people to the conference as possible.
