FOREA awards travel grants to scientific and educational congresses in North America. To be eligible, candidates must be scheduled to participate in a national orthoptic conference by delivering an oral presentation. Grants are awarded on a combined merit and financial need basis to Certified Orthoptists who are full members in good standing of either the AACO or TCOS.
We are happy to announce the winner of this year's FOREA AACO Travel Grant - Megan Evans, CO! She received $500USD and will present her research at the AACO National Meeting in Chicago, IL October 1-2, 2022.

The FOREA Travel Grant was established to acknowledge excellent work in research and provide travel funds to present research at the TCOS and AACO Annual Meetings. We are thrilled to sponsor her travel this year to present her research at this year's AACO National Meeting in Chicago.
Please remember to donate so we can continue to sponsor more orthoptists as they further expand our field!
