Applicants will be selected by the ECPN Steering Committee based on need and whether or not the applicant will be presenting at the annual meeting.

Please note that eligible applicants may also apply for the SPR Minority Travel Award Program. However, only one or the other award, not both, may potentially be awarded.
The Early Career Preventionists Network (ECPN) is a standing committee of the Society for Prevention Research. Each year the ECPN plans several events and activities on the SPR Annual Meeting program. These include the ECPN Luncheon and session, two invited sessions which address topics of special interest for early career prevention researchers, the ECPN Social Event, and the ECPN Student Poster Contest. All conference attendees are welcome to attend all EPCN events and activities. We especially encourage all ECPN Travel Award recipients to attend.
