The slate includes projects focused on stories of refugee and immigrant communities Japanese, Cambodian, Filipino, Afghani, Latino ; Native Americans; veterans and their families; incarcerated people; sex workers; commercial fishermen; farmers and ranchers; surfers; youth and elders.
Several projects explore particularly California concerns such as water use, food, criminal justice, and environmental protection. Chosen from submissions, the projects comprise a broad range of community-focused stories to provide deeper insight into and a more nuanced understanding of the diversity of the California experience.
Community Stories formerly known as the California Story Fund is a competitive grant program of Cal Humanities that supports story-based projects that are informed by humanities perspectives, methods, and content; that reveal the realities of California and its cultures, peoples, and histories; and that will be of interest to local, statewide, and potentially even national and global audiences.
