The purpose of the Reconciliation Grant Program is to support congregations in doing the work of building up a reconciling, open and inclusive identity, challenging the sins of racism, exclusion and oppression.
Reconciliation grants from the CCNC-N range from approximately $500-$1,000. Congregations engaging in a reconciliation project that also meets criteria for being "missional" (defined in the application) will be eligible for additional funds.
