If financial restrictions prevent you from paying all registration, hotel and transportation costs, please contact The Arc of Illinois for more information on how to apply for a Summit Stipend, funded through the Illinois Council on Developmental Disabilities and adminstered by The Arc of Illinois.
Who can apply?
Illinois resident and:
A person with a developmental disability
A parent of a person with a developmental disability
An immediate family member of a person with a developmental disability
A guardian/foster parent of a person with a developmental disability
How much can I apply for?
$200.00 per Person or $400 per Family. This stipend is intended to assist you with the costs associated with the Summit and is not intended to cover all the costs. A portion of the cost is the responsibility of the participant. When your request for assistance is approved, the stipend registration cost will be directly paid to The Arc of Illinois and the stipend share of the hotel cost will be directly paid to the Hilton Springfield Hotel.
You must make your own room reservations. When your stipend request for a hotel room is approved, you will be given a special code you need when making your room reservation to be paid with the stipend funds.
Contact The Arc of Illinois for a Financial Assistance Request Form that you must submit along with your registration form.
