CERF 2025 Childcare Support Grant (CSG)

Applications due 4 July 2025.

CERF is committed to supporting attendees with families to fully participate in the CERF 2025 conference. We're pleased to offer Childcare Support Grants to help offset childcare expenses during the conference.

Rather than providing on-site childcare, these grants give you the flexibility to arrange care that works best for your family—whether bringing a caregiver, hiring local childcare, or other arrangements.

Applications are due 4 July 2025.
