Mapping Charleston’s Black Burial Grounds Project
Proposal Due Date: March 17, 2023
The Preservation Society of Charleston (PSC) is seeking proposals for a Community Outreach Consultant to support the Mapping Charleston’s Black Burial Grounds Project team in facilitating a heritage stakeholder and descendant community engagement process. Made possible by a National Park Service African American Civil Rights Grant, the goal of this project is to implement a community-led, open-source mapping initiative to produce a comprehensive inventory of Black burial grounds in the City of Charleston. The purpose of the outreach phase is to provide a platform for community members to shape the outcomes of this mapping effort by sharing their knowledge of historically Black burial sites significant to their neighborhood and family histories.
