Since 2013, the Charles & Melita Jung Foundation (Jung Foundation) has sponsored public interest scholarships to the NAPABA Convention.  This year, the Jung Foundation is sponsoring three public interest attorney scholarships to the 2016 Convention in San Diego.  The scholarships are intended to encourage and make it easier for public interest attorneys to participate in NAPABA. 

The award consists of the following: (1) Flight: the Jung Foundation will purchase for the recipient a domestic round trip ticket to San Diego, CA on Southwest Airlines; (2) Registration Fee: conference registration fee reimbursement at the NAPABA member public interest member rate (register by August 26 at midnight ET for the Early Bird Rate, but no later than October 21, 2015); and for one of the three recipients (3) Hotel Stay:  reimbursement for a 3-night stay at the Hilton San Diego Bayfront hotel. 

Preference will be given to those who also apply for a NAPABA Convention Scholarship and reimbursements will be net of any other scholarships received.  All U.S.-based public interest attorneys are invited to apply.  The application deadline is October 7, 2016 (but the scholarships will be considered on a rolling basis beginning 8/19/16, so the earlier the better).
