Financial Aid Scholarships
Twenty financial aid scholarships are available for ACR members who are active in the field of conflict resolution as practitioners or educators, but lack the personal financial resources and/or employer sponsorship to attend the Annual Conference.  Financial aid scholarship recipients pay a reduced registration fee of $195.00 for the Main Conference.  ACR members interested in applying may inquire by email to Suzanne Burnett at sburnett@acrnet.org. The application deadline is Friday, July 29, 2011.  Those who apply by the deadline who do not receive a scholarship may register later through the regular registration process and the early bird rate will be honored.  

Volunteer Mediator Discount
ACR provides a volunteer mediator registration discount for the Main Conference.  Discounts are honored for up to 100 ACR members who serve as volunteer mediators or provide only voluntary support to community-based programs.  Applicants should submit a completed Registration form, a letter from the community-based program indicating volunteer status and confirmation that the discount is necessary to make attendance possible, and a fee of $195.00.  Materials should be sent to Suzanne Burnett at sburnett@acrnet.org by Friday, July 29, 2011 for consideration. 

Volunteer Opportunities
The ACR Community Section is working with the ACR Annual Conference Committee to make this a dynamic conference by helping to identify individuals interested in serving as volunteers at the conference.  Volunteers collect session evaluations, provide directions, check badges, assist with registration, staff the information table and help at conference events. 

In return for committing to work four (4) shifts, each 4 – 5 hours long, volunteers receive the discounted registration rate of only $170.00, and the opportunity to attend conference sessions and events when not on duty.    Volunteers receive all conference materials, all conference meals and a volunteer t-shirt.  It is a great opportunity for those who want to participate in the conference at less than half of the early bird registration rate.  

For information about volunteering at the conference, contact Dottie Painter at dottiepainter@gmail.com, or call Marya Kolman at 614-226-1063.  Applications to serve as a conference volunteer must be received by; noon EST on Friday, September 16, 2011.
