Scholarships and other assistance are available to help send youth and young adults to General Assembly 2012, which will take place June 20–24 in Phoenix, Ariz.

The Youth and Young Adult Ministries blog, Blue Boat, has a list of resources provided by each district within the Unitarian Universalist Association. New this year, youth and young adults may make one application and be considered for scholarships from both the Office of Youth and Young Adult Ministries and the General Assembly Planning Committee. Resources include “Get There” grants that defray the costs of transportation and food. These can help pay for bus rentals or car pooling for groups of youth or young adults and for box lunches and other meals at GA.

Grant applications received by March 31 will be given priority.
