The Open Philanthropy Project recommended a grant of $165,000 to Project NIA, via the Chicago Freedom School, to support Mariame Kaba’s work on transformative justice. Project NIA plans to use these funds to support trainings on transformative justice and to organize resources for activists and community members interested in this method.
