RESIST seeks to fund organizations that are actively part of a movement for social change and that demonstrate an understanding of the connections among oppressions. As part of the application process, potential grantees must provide specific information concerning their position, programs and coalition work on a range of important issues. RESIST seeks an honest evaluation from organizations about their position, or lack of a position, on issues of race, class, gender, reproductive rights, lesbian and gay rights, age and disability. RESIST believes that building a movement for social change requires groups to discuss issues that may not be central to their organization or work. For those organizations who have not had the opportunity to address these issues, we hope that our grant process will help to facilitate such discussions.
Eligibility-
- build community;
- organize or educate people to take action;
- encourage collaborations with other social change organizations;
- increase skills and/or access to resources;
- produce leadership from the constituency being most directly affected; and
- promote organizational longevity.
