The FCSSAA is pleased to offer the opportunity for member programs from smaller communities to apply for a subsidy to assist with expenses related to attending the conference and the FCSSAA Annual General Meeting.

Details for the Application Process:

• Subsidy applications are to be completed and submitted online. If you need assistance with the online application process please contact Morgan Kolic at morgan@benchtopevents.com.
• The subsidy amount is $300/person. You may apply for a maximum of two people per qualifying FCSS program.
• Communities with a population of 20,000 or less are eligible to apply for subsidy.

The program has a limited budget and may not be able to assist all programs that apply.

• Programs will be notified by email if they are approved for subsidy.  Payments will be processed via direct deposit once membership renewal and conference registration has been confirmed.
• Programs are responsible for registering for the conference and paying their own conference registration fees. Registration will open in mid to late September.

If your program needs to withdraw its approved subsidy application, please notify Morgan at the email address above as soon as possible, as the funds may be reallocated to another program. If the subsidy funds have already been received by the program they must be returned to the FCSSAA at the earliest opportunity.

Thank you and we look forward to seeing you at Impact 2026

Application deadline is August 31, 2026
