Please don’t let financial issues prevent you from attending a program at the Monastery. If you can’t afford the program fee, there are options:
1. Scholarships
– We currently provide scholarship assistance upon request. Scholarships are open to anyone based upon need and are intended to help cover retreat costs. Please click here to apply.
2. Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Justice (DEIJ) Fund
– In acknowledgement of the historical and systemic discrimination in our society, funds are available to members of groups who have suffered discrimination based on race, ethnicity, gender identity, physical ability or socio-economic class.
Reimbursement for round-trip travel costs is available for up to $500 in a calendar year.
Stipends of up to $1000 are available for a first month of residency. Stipends are intended to cover lost income, rent, and other living expenses.
Stipends of up to $300 are available for any further months of residency within a 12 month period.
In applying for DEIJ funding, please assess your needs and make your request accordingly; funds are limited, and we would like funding to be available for all who need it. Please click here to apply.
Please register for a retreat before applying for financial assistance so that your place in the retreat is reserved.
