The Niagara Frontier
Conference (NFC) of the Central Atlantic States Association is a
professional organization
whose members are made up of federal, state and local government
regulated industries. Our objectives are to foster
uniformity of enforcement of laws affecting foods, drugs, cosmetics
and medical devices, encourage and promote
cooperative enforcement programs with federal and local agencies and
create improved communication between
consumers, enforcers and industry groups.
This year NFC is offering a scholarship in the amount of $500 to a

the United States, this offer is made to
individual from both countries.
