Description
The American Mathematical Society (AMS) offers reimbursement grants to assist with child care expenses for registered participants of its sectional meetings. The goal is to enable parents to participate more fully in these meetings by offsetting the costs of child care, whether arranged at home or at the meeting location. These grants are administered by the AMS Meetings and Conferences Department, and recipients are responsible for making their own child care arrangements.
