Our Regional Anti-Racism/Pro-Reconciliation Justice Ministry (ARPRJM) seeks grant proposals for projects to further the work of dismantling racism. Successful projects and funding requests will target the systemic problems of race in our communities and churches.
Qualifying programs will be managed by recognized congregations or not-for-profit agencies within the Mid-America Region. If the sponsoring organizations are not Disciples of Christ (DOC) congregations, a local or nearby DOC congregation must participate as a co-sponsor. Community collaboration is encouraged, for example between DOC churches, local school(s), police department, not-for-profit agencies or other churches.
These grants are funded in part by the annual Reconciliation Offering, which is still being received for this year.
