Do you have an idea for a project to improve access to justice?

The Law and Justice Foundation of NSW’s Grants Program supports community projects that improve access to justice, particularly for socially and economically disadvantaged people.  The Foundation is interested in funding projects that show us “what works” – that is, projects from which lessons will be learned, that contribute to identifying effective reforms, initiatives and programs to address legal need.

The next round of applications for general grants to up to $50,000 will close on 31 March 2016.

To discuss your project idea and ensure you’re on the right track, contact the Grants and Legal Information Manager, Jane Kenny, either by phone on (02) 8227 3210 or by email at grants@lawfoundation.net.au. It is a requirement of our grants program that you consult with us about your application at least six weeks before the closing date. To make the most of the assistance we can offer, contact Jane as soon as possible.
