YAPA provides travel subsidies to rural YAPA Organisation Members (youth workers) to attend some YAPA events.
What will YAPA subsidise?
YAPA subsidises reasonable travel expenses from your home town to the event and return. We cannot subsidise accommodation, meals and refreshments, or parking.
Vehicles: We subsidise actual petrol costs only. We cannot pay Award kilometre rates or hire car costs.
Air fares: We will subsidise return air fares only if we judge that the time taken to drive would be unreasonable.
How much will we pay?
YAPA normally subsidises 50% of your reasonable travel expenses.
If you need a full (100%) subsidy, fill in the form and attach a letter on letterhead outlining why you need a full subsidy. You should briefly outline your funding and budget circumstances, and the importance to your work of attending the event.
Who is eligible?
-
Your organisation must be a financial Organisation Member of YAPA (not a Subscriber) before you can apply.
-
Usually only those staff at the same postal address as the membership are eligible for subsidies.
-
We give priority for subsidies to people in the target group of the event.
How to apply

There is no deadline to apply, but if we receive your application after we have allocated our subsidy budget for that event, we cannot pay you any subsidy.
