Grants

Supporting and Assisting Those Who Help Ensure Justice in Family Courts

Back in 2014 and 2015, the ACFLS made grants to family law-related service providers to help support those doing great work in the community. Then, under the direction of President Jill Barr and the Board of Directors, Past President Joe Bell spearheaded the effort to create what is now the ACFLS Charitable Foundation, Inc., an entirely separate entity from ACFLS, but with the full support and cooperation of ACFLS.  

The ACFLS Charitable Foundation provides grant opportunities to service providers & organizations who provide and support access to justice in the family courts. 

Our articles of incorporation are completed, first officers and directors chosen, by-laws written, and we have obtained IRS approval of our 501(c)(3) status so that donations to the foundation are tax deductible.
