Hollander Scholarship 

ACHCA believes that the quality of care and life in a Long Term Care Facility or Senior Housing begins with the Administrator’s quality of education. Therefore, ACHCA strongly encourages early career Administrators to apply for the George & Leah Hollander Memorial Scholarship.

Four individuals will be selected for scholarships. The recipients of this award will receive up to $2,500.00 reimbursement towards attending the Annual Convention Meeting including registration, travel, and lodging upon the submission of paid receipts.

The purpose of this scholarship fund is to sponsor four recipients to attend the Annual ACHCA Convention & Exposition.
