This federal Project Grant award of $132,462 from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) Promotion of the Humanities Division of Preservation and Access program (CFDA 45.149) will support the "Pandemic Voces from the Richman Neighborhood" oral history project. The grant, awarded to the CSU Fullerton Auxiliary Services Corporation on June 1, 2024, will enable the Lawrence de Graaf Center for Oral and Public History and the Center for Healthy Neighborhoods to record 30 oral history interviews (with approximately 20 in Spanish) chronicling the COVID-19 experiences of the predominantly Latinx, Spanish-speaking, and often undocumented residents of the Richman neighborhood in Fullerton, California. The stories of struggle and resilience from this underserved community will be made available on a searchable website, ensuring that these important narratives are not forgotten. The project will run through May 31, 2026.
