NAPSA Scholarship Applications due May 25!

The 40th Annual NAPSA Conference and Training Institute is August 19-22, 2012 in Washington, DC. Wouldn't it be great to be able to attend without cost?
Each NAPSA region of the country has one scholarship to be given and it covers the cost of the conference as well as travel expenses. This is an amazing opportunity for four pretrial professionals to experience the excitement and learning environment of a national conference. If you are interested in applying or if you know someone who could benefit from such an opportunity, please click on this link and complete the application. Send your completed application to me at the address listed on the application by no later than May 25, 2012 to be considered.
