Scholarships

A scholarship fund was established to ease financial barriers of participation in the 2024 conference for members of small community-based organizations, Tribes and Native-led organizations, students and early career professionals, and people from under-resourced and/or otherwise marginalized communities.  

Thanks to the generosity of sponsors and supporters, we are able to provide a limited number of conference fee waiver scholarships. We hope that this fund will support a more accessible and inclusive State of the Estuary Conference.

The Scholarship Application is now closed.
