Henry Smith Foundation: Equity in Justice Fund for Young Men
Closing date
13 grants of £200,000 each to support specialist services for racially minoritised young men aged 18 to 25 who are involved with the criminal justice system.
Applicants must have at least 18 months’ relevant experience and published annual accounts. Their services should be person-centred, consider people’s wider circumstances, and be shaped by the experiences of those affected by the issues. Priority will be given to smaller organisations and those led by and for the racially minoritised communities they support.
The funding is for culturally appropriate specialist support delivered in prisons, in the community, or through services helping people move from prison back into the community. The programme aims to improve access to tailored support for young men affected by racial injustice, including those from Black and Global Majority, Gypsy, Roma, Traveller, Jewish and Muslim communities.
Grants can run over three, four or five years.
