Vision for the Future Scholarships and GrantsThe Vision for the Future Scholarship Fund was founded in summer 2015, a passionate vision for (then California ACDA) Past President, Lori Marie Rios. Ms. Rios wanted to leave a legacy after her leadership tenure that would provide CCDA members with financial support for professional development, directly promoting increased opportunity for lifelong learning. The first few years of the scholarship funded one award –the Dr. Charles C. Hirt Scholarship– and has now grown to seven awards annually, with opportunity for even more growth in the future.
Annual applications are reviewed by an appointed committee. Funds will be awarded (as available) to Active members in good standing that provide substantial rationale of need regardless of current professional status. The Vision for the Future Scholarship Fund has been and will continue to be built over time by the good will and generosity of donors to CCDA. We are currently accepting applications for the 2024 VFTF Grants and Scholarships. For more information or to apply, please visit the individual page for each grant and scholarship.
