About grants for conflict resolution
Grants for conflict resolution support community mediation centers, dispute resolution programs, peacebuilding initiatives, and conflict education in schools and neighborhoods. Because dedicated federal programs are limited, the most active funders are private foundations, notably the JAMS Foundation, which partners with the National Association for Community Mediation (NAFCM) and the Association for Conflict Resolution on mediation and youth conflict resolution grants. State court systems and community foundations also fund local mediation and dispute resolution services.

What grants are available for conflict resolution?
Conflict resolution grants fund community mediation centers, court-connected and neighborhood dispute resolution, restorative and peer mediation in schools, conflict resolution education, and training for mediators and community leaders. Funding comes largely from private foundations and field-specific programs rather than a single federal stream, including the JAMS Foundation's grants administered with the National Association for Community Mediation (NAFCM) and the Association for Conflict Resolution. State court systems and local funders support community mediation as well.
Who funds conflict resolution grants?
Private philanthropy leads this field. The JAMS Foundation is a prominent national funder, supporting mediation and youth conflict resolution through partnerships such as its NAFCM mini-grant program and its initiative with the Association for Conflict Resolution. Community foundations, peacebuilding funders, and some state court administrative offices also fund dispute resolution services. Dedicated federal funding is limited, so most programs assemble support from foundations, court fees, and local government.
How can a community mediation program get funded?
Most community mediation centers blend several sources: foundation grants like those from the JAMS Foundation and NAFCM, contracts or fee revenue from courts that refer cases to mediation, local government support, and individual donations. A competitive grant application typically presents a replicable, sustainable program model, partnerships with courts or community institutions, and outcome data such as cases resolved and agreements reached. Tax-exempt nonprofit status or a fiscal sponsor is usually required.
