US DOJ grants for legal services

United States Department of Justice sealThe U.S. Dept. of Justice website now includes a “Grant Information” resource page that should interest the civil legal services community. According to the website, the purpose of the page is “to identify open grants, training and technical assistance that may be of particular interest to defender agencies, courts, state, local and tribal jurisdictions, research and academic institutions, and non-profit organizations that are working to enhance legal assistance and related services for historically underserved populations.”

The page links to Grant and Training & Technical Assistance information in the following areas: Criminal, Juvenile, Civil and Violence Against Women.
