About National Japanese American Historical Society Inc.

National Japanese American Historical Society Inc., doing business as National Japanese American Historic, is a San Francisco-based nonprofit organization registered with the federal government since 2004 that specializes in preserving and interpreting the history of Japanese American incarceration during World War II. The organization serves as a prime recipient of federal grant awards from the U.S. Department of the Interior's National Park Service, providing educational resources, historical documentation, and public programming that advance understanding of this critical period in American history. Through its federal grant portfolio, the organization delivers a range of educational materials, digitized archival collections, teacher professional development programs, and public exhibitions that address various aspects of the Japanese American confinement experience.

The organization's federal grant work demonstrates a multifaceted approach to historical preservation and education. Under the Preservation of Japanese American Confinement Sites program (CFDA 15.933) and the Japanese American Confinement Sites (JACS) Grant Program (Public Law 109-441), the National Japanese American Historical Society has undertaken several significant initiatives funded by the National Park Service's Intermountain Region and National Office. Most recently, the organization received a $1.52 million project grant awarded in September 2025 to implement the Fragile Freedoms Project, which will provide professional development workshops and field sessions to over 500 teachers across 12 confinement and historically related sites through September 2028. Previously, the organization cataloged and digitized archival photographs, documents, and ephemera related to ten War Relocation Authority sites and Department of Justice camps for public access through the University of San Francisco's Japanese American Confinement Sites website. The organization has also developed educational materials examining the role of American jazz and camp dance bands as expressions of survival and cultural identity among incarcerated Japanese Americans, creating interactive presentations, traveling exhibitions, and teacher professional development curricula for grades 4-12. Additionally, the organization published and distributed materials on Libia Maoki Yamamoto's memoir, highlighting the lesser-known history of Japanese Americans from Latin America detained at confinement sites. The organization has also received sub-grant funding from the National Writing Project for its 2022-2023 Building a More Perfect Union Grant initiatives.
