There are up to six scholarships available; scholarships are available to students from Illinois. The scholarships are designed to assist therapeutic recreation/recreational therapy students in attending the ILRTA Annual Conference by covering the cost of registration and conference meals. Scholarship recipients will also receive a complementary student membership to ILRTA for one year.
