TRAVEL INFORMATION

PLANNING TO ATTEND?
The Grand Hyatt Washington is now accepting reservations for Grassroots attendees. Book, modify, or cancel your hotel reservations through their online reservations system. The service closes on Monday, February 6, 2012.

GRASSROOTS TRAVEL STIPEND AVAILABLE!
The AIA believes that the investment to support our leaders is a crucial part of its mission therefore the AIA will provide one-to-one matching funds, not to exceed $1,000 per person, for only one individual per component.

Due to budgetary constraints, assistance will not be afforded to all components but every effort will be made to help as many components as possible. First priority will be given to components that haven’t been able to send any of their leaders to Grassroots for the past two years. Consideration will also be given to components that can only afford to send one of their leaders.

Provide a copy of the completed application no later than 5 p.m. EST on Tuesday, January 31. You will be notified electronically or by telephone, no later than the close of business on Monday, February 13 as to whether your component will receive assistance. Incomplete applications will not be considered.
