Details:
The New Jersey Historical Commission (NJHC) is committed to an ongoing, multifaceted strategy to make New Jersey history more accessible, inclusive, and relevant to diverse, 21st-century residents and visitors. By encouraging the use of new strategies for developing history programming, assessing audience engagement, and ensuring equity in the staffing and leadership of organizations, this approach will not only benefit history groups today, but create stronger institutions tomorrow.
The goal of the DEAI Grant Program is to establish an opportunity for eligible New Jersey history nonprofits to access qualified DEAI consultants to inform and train leadership, while promoting best practices for institutional and programmatic diversity.
