Special Grant
FY24 funds are no longer available. The allotted fiscal year funds have been spent for the current year. If traveling after July 1, you are welcome to submit an application for FY25 funding.
Special Grant funding is available as an alternate source of funds for professional and personal development for JCCC full- and part-time faculty and full-time staff. Funds are available on a first come first serve basis. Once the allocated yearly amount has been met, the committee will no longer be able to review applications.
