Description
The American Mathematical Society (AMS) offers child care reimbursement grants to help parents participate more fully in the 2027 Joint Mathematics Meetings (JMM), held in Chicago, Illinois, January 12–15, 2027. Administered by the AMS Meetings and Conferences Department, the program helps cover child care expenses associated with meeting participation.
Support can cover care arranged at home or at the meeting, including hiring a nanny at home or bringing a caregiver to the meeting. Parents arrange their own care; the grants provide reimbursement rather than an on-site child care service. AMS does not recommend child care providers.
