Funding programs available for anti-racism and multiculturalism

To create a more cohesive and efficient grants and contribution program, the terms and conditions related to the Community Support, Multiculturalism, and Anti-Racism Initiatives Program (CSMARI) and Anti-Racism Action Program (ARAP) components were consolidated into a single set of terms and conditions under the Multiculturalism and Anti-racism Program (MARP).
