37 Foundations that have given Justice and Juvenile Justice grants in Iowa

Justice and Juvenile Justice: These foundations have provided grants and donations to nonprofits and businesses in recent years to support law and justice programs. Funded work includes services for at-risk youth, incarcerated adults, and victims of crime. ADD — new second paragraph (sensitive-category framing applies): Organizations working in justice and juvenile justice often draw on a mix of government-affiliated and private funders, since legal aid, diversion programs, and victim services are frequently funded separately. Sorting by funding source and recipient type above can help identify which opportunities fit your organization’s programs. GrantWatch Intelligence™ can surface funders with an established history of supporting justice-focused services. Literacy and Libraries URL: /foundations/22/literacy-and-libraries Live intro (current): These foundations have provided grants and donations to nonprofits and businesses in recent years to help support the needs of libraries and literacy programs. AFTER — readability fix: These foundations have provided grants and donations to nonprofits and businesses in recent years to support libraries and literacy programs.

Justice and Juvenile Justice: Literacy and library funders range from local Friends-of-the-Library groups to national literacy foundations, so filtering by location and funding source above helps narrow the field.
