About this program
The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission operates the Employment Discrimination Private Bar Program (CFDA 30.005) to refer individuals with filed employment discrimination charges to private lawyers and provide technical assistance to those alleging discrimination.
This program does not disburse federal grant awards to external recipients. Instead, it functions as a referral and technical assistance service operated directly by the EEOC. The program connects individuals who have filed charges alleging discrimination under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Equal Pay Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act, and the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act with private attorneys prepared to litigate such cases. Individuals may request assistance in writing or orally at the nearest EEOC District Office.
Because this listing funds no grants to external applicants — it is a direct-service program rather than a funding stream — it is not a pursuit opportunity for organizations seeking federal grant dollars. Organizations providing employment discrimination legal services, EEOC-affiliated legal clinics, or bar associations facilitating pro bono referrals may wish to monitor the program for partnership or coordination opportunities with the EEOC, but no grant funding is available under this Assistance Listing.
