The Chronicon Community Sliding Scale Scholarship Application
PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE APPLYING
Thank you for your interest in being a member of The Chronicon Community! I created this company through my own lived experience of battling the isolation and pain that is all too palpable when living with a chronic illness, let alone multiple chronic conditions. This community was built to go against the narrative that I was often told when navigating my health. I created it to show others that we are so much more than our health struggles can make us feel that we are.
Before filling out the application please consider the following:
I made the cost for The Chronicon Community less then $1.00 a day to make it as accessible for as many folks as possible. Before filling out this application please be sure that you are doing it out of financial necessity and not because of an emotional or personal reason. We are often not taught to pay for our well-being or emotional joy in the way we are taught to pay for material items and other aspects of life. I just ask that you examine this clearly before you apply. With that being said, I have personally been unable to afford $25/month for things due to health expenses and being out of work in my past. If you are experiencing financial hardship, it is an honor to support you in this way and I welcome you to apply.
As a part of our review process we prioritize folks on disability, people who are unable to work due to their health, people who are under financial distress due to their medical expenses, and those who experience marginalization due to being members of the BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities. If this is you and you would like to indicate any of this on your application, I welcome you to do so.
I am excited to welcome folks who are ready to exist in a world where we take up space with our strength, we celebrate every single win even if society forgets to, and we don't have to do it alone. If you're ready for that too, please continue to fill out the below application.
With Love,
Nitika Chopra
