Our Change grants
Our Change grants provide funding for individual projects that aim to address issues or gaps limiting people's access to justice.
These grants are an effective way for not-for-profit organisations to implement strategic initiatives that help Victorians prevent or resolve legal problems.
We award Change grants annually and tailor funding to suit the needs of individual projects. This sees us offer grants of up to three years, where appropriate
Through our Change grants we promote innovation in service delivery, policy and law reform, helping to reduce disadvantage in Victoria's justice system.
2026 Change grants will be awarded across two streams:
- Justice Anew
- Building Justice
Change grants applications are currently closed.
The Justice Anew stream aims to support the Victorian community legal sector to work in partnerships to implement ambitious, transformational initiatives that will shape the future of legal assistance in Victoria.
Applications are welcomed from Victorian community legal centres (CLCs) working in partnerships to harness technology, service system redesign and/or economies of scale to improve justice outcomes for Victorians.
The Building Justice stream aims to build on what works to improve justice outcomes by supporting not-for-profit organisations to embed, scale and/or replicate transformative initiatives that help more Victorians prevent or resolve their legal problems.
Applications are welcomed from not-for-profit organisations working to improve access to justice in Victoria. We are looking to support ambitious and promising models that demonstrate strategic vision.
