Visual Communications Media received a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities in 2023 to produce "The 430 Project," a six-episode documentary series examining the 50th commemoration of April 30, 1975, and Vietnamese American community narratives and identity. Most recently, in September 2025, the organization received a grant to conduct an archaeological survey and produce a comprehensive report on the Tule Lake Stockade, a secretive military prison-within-a-prison facility, utilizing archival research, remote sensing technologies including LIDAR and near-infrared imagery, and pedestrian surveys to document this historically significant but previously unexamined site.
