The Virginia Department of Criminal Justice Services (DCJS) is offering grant funds through its Combatting Hate Crimes Grant Program. This program aims to minimize bias-motivated incidents by providing competitive grants to local governments that have established partnerships with eligible non-profit, 501(c)3 institutions and organizations. These organizations are either current targets or at risk of being targets of hate crimes based on race, religious conviction, color, gender, disability, gender identity, sexual orientation, or national origin. The broader mission of this initiative aligns with public safety and social justice, seeking to protect vulnerable communities and promote an inclusive environment free from bias-motivated violence. The primary beneficiaries of this program are local governments and their partner non-profit, 501(c)3 institutions, and similarly situated organizations within their jurisdictions. These organizations are at risk for targeted, bias-motivated violence. The impact goal is to reduce the occurrence of hate crimes by strengthening the security and resilience of these at-risk entities. Expected outcomes include enhanced physical and cybersecurity, improved staff preparedness to respond to incidents, and a decrease in vulnerabilities identified through threat assessments. The program strategically prioritizes localities that demonstrate a proactive approach to risk mitigation, specifically those that have conducted threat assessments with local crime prevention officers. The program's focus is on funding projects that enhance security and preparedness against hate crimes. This includes support for target hardening activities, critical technology and infrastructure, and security and monitoring equipment. Additionally, funds can be used for contractual security services, such as on-site security, cybersecurity activities, and inspection and screening systems. Training is also a key priority, encompassing security-related training for employed and volunteer staff, response to serious incidents, and terrorism awareness. Personnel funding is available for part-time staff dedicated to performing security assessments for non-profit organizations. The grant duration is a twelve-month period, from January 1, 2025, to December 31, 2025. The total funding available for the Combatting Hate Crimes Grant Program for the FY2025 fiscal year is $3,500,000, with a maximum request of $150,000 per locality. Success will be measured by the implementation of approved security enhancements, documented training completion, and the capacity building of non-profit organizations to identify and address vulnerabilities. The program's theory of change posits that by providing resources for enhanced security, training, and threat assessment, at-risk organizations will become less susceptible to bias-motivated violence, thereby contributing to a safer community for all.

The Hospice Foundation of Oklahoma at OCCF grant opportunity, managed by the Oklahoma City Community Foundation, is dedicated to enhancing end-of-life care and promoting awareness of hospice and palliative care options across Oklahoma. This initiative aligns with the foundation's broader mission to support critical community needs, focusing on areas that directly improve the well-being and dignity of individuals during a vulnerable life stage. The grant aims to foster a more informed and supportive environment for patients and their families by addressing gaps in education, awareness, and accessible care models. The primary beneficiaries of this grant are healthcare professionals, patients, families, and the general public throughout Oklahoma. The impact goals are multifaceted: to improve the quality and accessibility of end-of-life care, to increase public understanding of available options such as hospice, palliative care, and advance directives, and to develop innovative social model hospice services. By empowering healthcare providers with specialized training and informing the community, the grant seeks to ensure that individuals can make informed decisions about their end-of-life journey and receive compassionate support. The grant program prioritizes three key areas: Education, Awareness, and Social Model Hospice. Education programs focus on training healthcare professionals in hospice, palliative care, and end-of-life issues. Awareness programs aim to inform patients, families, and the public about their rights, care options, and legal aspects like advance directives. The Social Model Hospice category is designed to establish or expand non-medical hospice facilities and services, offering dedicated home-like environments with round-the-clock individualized care, particularly when dying at home becomes unmanageable. This includes support for facility purchasing, remodeling, furnishing, equipment, and general operating costs. Expected outcomes include a better-educated healthcare workforce, an increase in public knowledge about end-of-life care, and the establishment of new or expanded social model hospice facilities. Measurable results for education and awareness grants, typically ranging from $5,000 to $25,000, could involve tracking the number of professionals trained or the reach of public information campaigns. For social model hospice grants, ranging from $10,000 to $100,000 over two years, outcomes could include the number of new facilities, beds available, or individuals served. The foundation’s strategic priority is to invest in programs that demonstrate a clear theory of change, leading to tangible improvements in end-of-life care infrastructure and community understanding across the state.

The 2025 Arts & History Re-Grant Program, administered by the Cape May County Government in New Jersey, offers funding to support arts and history-related projects and ongoing programs within Cape May County. The program's mission aligns with fostering community engagement and increasing exposure to arts and history. It aims to support a diverse range of initiatives, from single events to sustained programming, ultimately enriching the cultural landscape of the county. The program targets organizations and groups located within Cape May County that are involved in arts or history. This includes civic organizations, social organizations, community theater groups, dance companies, museums, galleries, orchestras, and singing groups. The impact goals are to support and sustain arts and history projects, programs, and general operations, thereby enhancing cultural offerings and community participation in these areas. There are three distinct categories of funding: Special Project, General Programming Support (GPS), and General Operating Support (GOS). Special Project funding is for single, specific arts or history-related events. GPS supports major, ongoing arts programs with multiple events or activities throughout the year. GOS is designed for organizations whose primary charter is arts or history-related, providing general operating support to groups that consistently increase exposure to art/history in the community. The program prioritizes projects and programs that take place within Cape May County and, for General Operating Support, requires the applying organization to be located within the county. Expected outcomes include a more vibrant cultural scene in Cape May County, increased opportunities for residents to engage with arts and history, and the sustained operation of local arts and history organizations. Measurable results would involve the number and diversity of projects funded, the reach and attendance of programs, and the organizational stability of grant recipients. The strategic priorities revolve around making arts and history accessible, supporting the infrastructure of cultural organizations, and ensuring fiscal responsibility, particularly for General Operating Support grants. The program's theory of change posits that by providing targeted financial support, local cultural initiatives will thrive, leading to a more enriched and engaged community.
