It was good to read about the results of Oklahoma’s program.

 

VTDDC also has a small grant program that includes scholarships for individuals and families. 

It has been a great outreach tool – including finding new members.

 

It has gotten more formal over the years.  You can information and application materials at

p.s. Per the federal law we provide stipends to members to attend meetings, and have a policy on that.  Seems to me Councils do not have a choice given the federal statute.

Take care.  See you soon.
