Travel Grants

PCC travel grants are designed to alleviate the costs of airfare, hotel, and conference fees for interested parties who would not otherwise be able to attend the 2023 conference. We can also offer a limited number of complimentary virtual registrations for members of the anti-doping community with demonstrated interest and financial need. Please contact jquiles@cleancompetition.org for more information, or to request consideration for a travel grant or complimentary virtual registration for PCC 2023.
