Scott Boord Career Development Scholarship Program

LeadingAge Southeast's scholarship program is named for Past Chair Scott Boord, in honor of his commitment to the  career enhancement and mentoring of our members. The purpose of the scholarship is to enrich the understanding and skills of member community staff in order to improve the quality of life and the quality of care provided by LeadingAge Southeast member organizations.

Scholarship funds are awarded to members to participate in programs like our Annual Convention & Exposition, Legislative Days: Advocacy in Action, Joint Training, and other educational and professional development events held throughout the year. Applications will be considered on a first come, first serve basis until the application deadline or until funds are exhausted.
