Application notesApplications are accepted on a rolling basis via a single online form. Applicants should select a local chapter if one exists, as they have a strong preference for local projects. Thematic and 'Any' chapter options are also available. Applications are reviewed monthly and are kept on file for future consideration, so re-application is not necessary unless the project changes.
