As with many other grant opportunities this year, The Florida Bar Young Lawyers Division is offering new Affiliate Outreach Conference grants.  Affiliates are eligible to submit and present at AOC (in person) one out of the three grant opportunities described below.  Affiliates are not eligible to receive grant funds for more than one of the three grant opportunities identified below. As such, please select and apply for only one grant opportunity by or before 5 pm on Friday, January 31, 2025.

Events and programs submitted for these grants must relate to the practice of law, e.g., how the event or program improves the practice of law in Florida.  The Young Lawyers Division does not fund projects that, in the sole discretion of the YLD, do not relate to the profession and the practice of law. For instance, simply organizing a non-legal community service related event or directly providing donations (other than as it relates to legal services) to a non-profit in your community, will not fall within the scope of any of the grants below. Failure to follow the requirements may result in rescission of the grants and may affect consideration of any future applications for grants. Affiliates are encouraged to reach out to the Grant Committee Chairs throughout the application process to ensure their programs satisfy all requirements.

If you have any questions regarding grants, please contact Affiliate Grant Chairs Tiffany Pereira (tiffany@thepereiralawfirm.com) and Allan Charles (acharles@llw-law.com) or YLD Program Administrator, Tom Miller (TMiller@floridabar.org)

The Young Lawyers Division does not fund projects that, in the sole discretion of the YLD, do not relate to the profession and the practice of law.
