Two scholarship funds were created in memory of Joanne Perkins from Mills County: one on the State level and one on the International level.

One scholarship fund was established with funds provided by the Iowa Chapter.  It pays to send someone to the APCO North Central Regional Conference or to the International conference when it is held in the North Central Region.  Registration fees, lodging and a meal allowance are provided; the recipient’s agency is requested to provide transportation.  The application deadline is printed in the IOWA Intercom, the APCO newsletter and will also be posted on this website.  Selection is made by the Iowa APCO board.

The second scholarship fund was established on the international level with donations provided primarily by chapters.  The money was offered to the Iowa Chapter in 2002 upon approval of a plan for its use.  The registration fee and one night lodging are made available for three persons to attend the Iowa spring conference and another three for the fall conference.  Registration materials mailed to agencies provides the application deadline, and it will also be posted on this website.  The applicant must complete the application and selection is by random drawing.
