The Mississippi Humanities Council is a private not-for-profit corporation funded by the United States Congress and the National Endowment for the Humanities.[1] Its mission is "to provide public programs in traditional liberal arts disciplines to serve nonprofit groups in Mississippi."[2] The Mississippi Humanities Council belongs to a group of 55 other such state and territorial humanities councils that receive Federal support.[3] The MHC was founded in 1972.[4]

The Mississippi Humanities Council sponsors a number of programs annually. These include awards recognizing post-secondary educators in the humanities.[5] Other "public humanities" awards recognize citizens who advance the study and understanding of humanities among the citizens of Mississippi.[6]

The MHC also supports adult and family literacy programs.[7]
