DEIJ Fund Request

The DEIJ Fund exists in acknowledgment of the historic and systemic discrimination in our society. Funds are available to members of groups who have suffered discrimination based on race, ethnicity, gender identity, physical ability or socio-economic class.

Reimbursement for round-trip travel costs is available for up to $500 in a calendar year.

Stipends of up to $1000 are available for a first month of residency. Stipends are intended to cover lost income, rent, and other living expenses.

Stipends of up to $300 are available for any further months of residency within a 12 month period.

In applying for DEIJ funding, please assess your needs and make your request accordingly; funds are limited, and we would like funding to be available for all who need it.
