Summer Program Scholarships for Polk County Kids

What is this program?

On April 19, 2010, IFAPA received a grant from the Polk County Decategorization to offer scholarships for summer activities in 2010. Children who were eligible to receive these scholarships must have been from Polk County and needed to have an open DHS or JCS adjudication (or DHS eligible) and reside with their parents, in kinship care, in foster care or in residential placements. Subsidized adoptive children (from Polk County) also qualified to apply.

IFAPA had set a goal to provide summer scholarships to 225 Polk County children. We exceeded our goal and were able to offer summer scholarships to over 270 children!!

As of June 2, 2010, IFAPA has spent all of the remaining grant funds. We are no longer able to process any additional applications / scholarship requests.
