Child Care
The Philadelphia Convention and Visitors Bureau recommend The Philadelphia Nanny Network (http://www.nannyagency.com/) and Your Other Hands (http://www.yourotherhands.com/services.html ) for attendees interested in child care services. Attendees are responsible for making their own child care arrangements.
Grants of $250 per family are available for attendees who wish to bring children with them to the meeting. Attendees are responsible for making their own arrangements for child care. The grants will be given as a reimbursement for expenses. If requests exceed available funding, preference will be given to students and early career attendees who are presenting at the meeting.
Deadline for applications is March 18, 2016.
Notifications will go out by April 24, 2016.
