Date
Dec. 10, 2015
Duration

Description
Through its work over the past five years, the Nuclear Proliferation International History Project (NPIHP) has shown that new empirical evidence and analysis can help policymakers re-examine long-held assumptions and myths. NPIHP has helped revitalize the field of nuclear history by providing support and training for researchers through an interlinked network of research institutions across thirteen countries. NPHIP procures, disseminates, and archives new evidence and sources by organizing workshops, making requests for archival documents, and supporting research collaboration. NPIHP will engage the policy community through workshops, briefings, and media outreach. This grant consolidates and expands the partner network, building on past investments in capacity building, archival research, and outreach activities.

Date
Dec. 10, 2015
Duration

Description
The nuclear security field tends to be long on research and short on communications capacity. Yet strong media outreach is essential to ensuring that sound analysis is heard above the din. ReThink Media (“ReThink”) fills this gap by working with policy organizations to hone their media skills and develop a strong shared narrative that can influence policymaking priorities. ReThink will conduct research on public opinion and assess current messaging and media coverage. It will then provide training to help organizations within the sector communicate more effectively. One focus will be on enhancing the sector’s capacity to create digital, video, and infographic content. ReThink will also provide targeted training and support for the Fissile Materials Working Group (FMWG) in advance of the 2016 Nuclear Security Summit.

Description
Civil rights advocates in the United States are at a pivotal moment. The country is about to enter its first presidential election campaign without the full protection of the Voting Rights Act since the law was partially struck down by the Supreme Court in 2013—and many state and local governments have introduced bills to limit access to the polls. And although the 2020 census is five years away, efforts to defund it and exclude underrepresented groups from the decennial tradition are already underway. With Corporation support, as the leading expert on civil rights research and education, the Leadership Conference Education Fund (the education fund) will continue its public education, outreach, and communications campaign to educate the public about the importance of voting rights; the 2020 Census; and redistricting. It will also undertake strategic planning, which includes ensuring a sound plan for succession of the organization’s leadership.

Project Title
For support of the voting rights working group
Date
Dec. 10, 2015
Duration
24 months
Description
The historic 1965 Voting Rights Act was enacted at the height of the civil rights movement to combat discriminatory practices used by state and local governments to restrict the rights of minorities to vote. For almost fifty years the law has prevented hundreds of voting changes that would limit and reduce the voting power of underrepresented groups from taking effect and also likely deterred the consideration or adoption of countless other discriminatory voting changes. The Supreme Court’s June 2013 ruling in Shelby County v. Holder significantly undercut the strength of the Voting Rights Act, opening the door to renewed efforts at voting discrimination by state and local governments. Given the threat that the Supreme Court’s ruling poses to voting rights, ten of the leading voting rights litigation organizations in the country have come together to form the Voting Rights Litigation Working Group and deepen their ongoing collaboration in response to the Shelby County v. Holder case. With renewed Corporation support, the working group members will leverage their collective expertise by consulting and collaborating on litigation efforts to defend new challenges to voting rights in the wake of the Shelby County v. Holder case.

Project Title
For support of the Four Freedoms Fund, a donor collaborative on immigrant civic integration at the state level
Date
Dec. 10, 2015
Duration
12 months
Description
With the 2016 Presidential elections looming, it is generally accepted that there will be no movement on federal immigration reform by policymakers until 2017, at the earliest. But while progress remains stalled at the federal level, there is plenty of movement at the state and local level, where policies often have much greater impact on the day-to-day lives of the public. Established in 2003 with Corporation support and housed at NEO Philanthropy (formerly known as Public Interest Projects ), the Four Freedoms Fund (FFF) is a donor collaborative that supports state-based and regional immigrant-serving coalitions across the country. FFF serves a hybrid role of convener, grantmaker, and strategist, connecting grassroots organizations with national immigrant integration groups. With renewed Corporation support, FFF will continue to support state and regional groups across the country through grants that build institutional capacity, strategic collaboration among grantees, effective communications, and alliances with other constituencies.

Project Title
For support of the Center on the Future of American Education
Date
Dec. 10, 2015
Duration
8 months
Description
The new Center on the Future of American Education (CFAE) at Georgetown University’s McCourt School of Public Policy is being founded with the goal to make American education more effective, equitable, and efficient by breaking the ideological log-jam in education policy circles and by making the complexities of education policy clear and compelling for policymakers and practitioners. It will bring together leading researchers, policy experts, and professional writers under an innovative staffing strategy to promote sound, pragmatic solutions to the nation’s education challenges. With support from the Corporation, CFAE will launch in early 2016 and build its capacity to share important new research and analysis on education reform with multiple audiences, in support of the Corporation’s efforts to build public and professional understanding and will for school reforms that raise student achievement.

Project Title
For support of its immigration policy program
Date
Dec. 10, 2015
Duration
24 months
Description
In recent years, more and more state legislatures across the country have introduced policies intended to help integrate immigrants and provide them access to services, such as drivers’ licenses, health care, and in-state tuition at public universities, among others. The proliferation of these policies—a dramatic shift from the period before 2012 when most state immigration bills deterred integration efforts—has been due, in some part, to the research and analysis provided by policy organizations. These trusted groups can accurately assess the impact of proposed legislation—helping to inform policymakers and the public during such debates. Among the organizations working to advance state and federal immigration reform, the Center for American Progress (CAP) has acted as a resource for policymakers, a hub for new research and much needed facts on immigration, and a coordinating entity for research, communications, and policy work. With renewed Corporation support, the Center for American Progress will continue to drive the policy debate through research, analysis, and collaboration with key players; and monitor the implementation of new policies at the federal, state, and local levels.
