Funding Assistance

Applications for Funding Assistance have now closed.
Limited sponsorship available to people with intellectual disabilities.

Are you a person with disabilities seeking financial assistance to register for the conference?

Thanks to the generosity of Te Pou, some assistance is available to meet costs for those with disabilities to participate in the conference. This is only available to New Zealand residents (apologies to Australians), and is limited. Priority will be given to cover registration costs.

Please contact the Conference Organisers with the following information:

 *   Tell us if you are a presenter or co-presenter
 *   Tell us if you are attending full conference or one day only
 *   Tell us if you are wanting funding assistance to attend the Lets talk seminar
 *   Tell us if you are wanting funding assistance to attend the conference dinner

We will contact you to let you know what assistance we can make available.

In the meantime you need to register to attend the conference, and choose to pay later by invoice, pending a decision on funding assistance.
