Learning for Justice Educator Fund
The Learning for Justice Educator Fund, a program of the Southern Poverty Law Center, supports educators who embrace and embed social justice, anti-bias, and anti-racist principles throughout their classrooms and schools. Educators across the U.S. may apply, with priority given to proposals in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, and Mississippi. All projects must incorporate at least one Learning for Justice resource, framework, or publication and must also address one or more of the following key outcomes: restorative discipline, youth civic engagement, and dismantling oppressive narratives. Classroom level grants ranging from $500 to $2,500 are available to individual educators or small peer groups, while school level and district level grants ranging from $2,500 to $25,000 are provided to educator networks and school or district leadership teams.
