Dear Cancer Patient Advocate,

We are pleased to announce that we are accepting applications for the Patient Advocate Scholarship to attend the 11thInternational Conference of the Society for Integrative Oncology at the Omni Houston Galleria Hotel, in Houston, Texas, USA from Sunday, October 26 to Tuesday, October 28, 2014. This Patient Advocate Scholarship Program is made possible through a generous grant from the National Cancer Institute. Scholarships are available to help cover travel, hotel, registration, and other expenses for advocates traveling from outside the greater Houston, TX area to attend SIO2014. Applications will be evaluated and reviewed based on the Scholarship Eligibility Criteria listed in the application materials. Scholarship recipients will be reimbursed post-conference, in the amount of $1,000 (USD).

The Patient Advocate Scholarship Program is an opportunity for patient advocates to attend the sessions at SIO2014 and then return to their organizations and their communities to share what they have learned. It is our hope that scholarship recipients will be motivated to seek out and participate in consumer advocacy opportunities, lending a crucial perspective and making a difference in the lives of people affected by cancer.

Applications will be accepted until 11:59 am EDT on Friday, September 5, 2014. Please complete the scholarship application and email it along with your curriculum vitae, bio-sketch, or resume, to info@integrativeonc.org. All applicants will be notified of their application status on Monday, September 15, 2014.
