About Civil Rights Grants for Nonprofits
Civil rights grants fund nonprofit efforts to advance equality through advocacy, legal services, community education, and policy reform. These initiatives combat discrimination, protect vulnerable populations, and strengthen democratic participation. 7,381 active grants support this work, with the Administration for Community Living among the leading funders in this space, awarding resources to organizations driving systemic change and institutional accountability.
Most civil rights grants are competitive, with typical awards ranging from $275K to $375K.
