Hello MEEOA Members, We know that many programs across Maine have had to restrict or even eliminate professional development and travel funds due to tight budgets. I am making this Jerry Ellis Professional Development Fund application available to you in hopes that you will apply for these professional development funds. While the funds are not automatic, the process is quite simple and the form is self-explanatory, but Lynn Ploof-Davis can answer any questions. Her contact information is: [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> or by phone at 207-778-7297. Once you have completed the application please mail it to Lynn at Lynn Ploof-Davis NEOA Professional Development Chair Director of TRIO Programs 252 Main St. Farmington, ME 04294 Thank you!
