“Partners like @acluohio, @TowardsEmploy, and @schubertcenter are embodying the difficult balance of daily and systematic work that moves our community toward a model of restorative justice,” said Tony Richardson, president of The George Gund Foundation.

Last week, our Board awarded $11.8m in grants. A full list of awards: gundfoundation.org/grantmaking/aw… Thank you to all of our grantee parnters. We are especially proud to share that several grants continue the Foundation's committment to restorative justice.
