In addition to completing the online application form, please email the following information:
If you are requesting funding to attend an event: A copy of the convention or seminar brochure with course descriptions, speakers, hotel prices and other pertinent information must be sent to us before we will consider your application. Please include the hotel tax rate and resort fees with your hotel quote. The applicant should indicate which lectures they hope to attend on the seminar brochure.

Graves, President: Attach a letter outlining why you would like to attend the conference from each applicant AND A letter from the applicant's supervisor with a recommendation and comments on how attending the conference will be beneficial to the department. We prefer that applicants have been on the Northeast Health Systems staff for at least one year.
Airfare: If you are travelling, please obtain your airfare quotes from online agencies like Expedia.com. Attach a copy of several airfare quotes with dates of departure and return. If approved, you may book your reservations through Expedia.com placing those charges on your own credit card. You must notify Traci Cushman of your airfare booking including the name of the airline. If you have to change your reservation, the Lutz Foundation will NOT cover the penalty charges. Please bear in mind that if you book a reservation prior to review of your application for funding, and you are not approved, you will be responsible for the costs. We do not pay for travel insurance or "seat fees". Include a printout of some airfare estimates with your application.
