For general support.

The Open Philanthropy Project awarded a grant of $130,000 to the Florida Rights Restoration Coalition (FRRC) for general support. This grant falls within Open Philanthropy's work on criminal justice reform.

FRRC, a small organization focused on voter turnout and voting rights, plans to use this grant to hire a deputy and an administrative staff member. FRRC has spent several years working to build support for a ballot initiative to restore voting rights to formerly incarcerated people in Florida, and Open Philanthropy hopes that this grant will enable it to do this work more effectively.
