Description
The Raptor Research Foundation’s Caregiver Grants help researchers and scientists attend its annual meetings despite caregiving responsibilities. The program supports and retains talented researchers while promoting diversity and inclusion within RRF. Rather than funding research directly, it addresses the caregiving expenses associated with meeting participation.
Funds may cover childcare, elder care, or other caregiving services provided at the meeting venue or at home. Eligible costs also include travel for caregivers or dependents to the annual meeting and additional lodging costs. These options accommodate different caregiving arrangements, with funding decisions based on demonstrated need and the program’s eligibility requirements.
