Opportunity Information: Apply for P20AS00024
The NAGPRA Repatriation Grants FY2020 opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P20AS00024) is a discretionary grant program administered by the Department of the Interior, National Park Service, to support the repatriation of Native American human remains and certain cultural items under the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA). The core purpose of the funding is to help carry out repatriation, meaning the formal transfer of control of Native American human remains and/or cultural items to the appropriate recipients, including lineal descendants, federally recognized Indian tribes, and Native Hawaiian organizations. The program also recognizes repatriation-related work involving culturally unidentifiable Native American human remains (CUI), specifically as handled through the disposition process described in 43 CFR 10.11.
Funding is narrowly focused on practical, on-the-ground costs that directly enable repatriation to occur. Projects supported by these grants are intended to defray expenses tied to the physical care and movement of remains and items and the actions needed to complete a respectful transfer and disposition. Allowable activities highlighted in the opportunity include packaging, transportation, contamination removal, reburial, and/or storage of NAGPRA-related human remains and/or cultural items. In other words, the program is designed to remove financial barriers that can delay or prevent the completion of repatriation responsibilities and the return of ancestors and cultural materials to their communities.
Eligible applicants are broad and include state, county, and city or township governments; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; federally recognized Native American tribal governments; and certain nonprofit organizations, including nonprofits that do not have IRS 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education). The funding activity categories reflect the cross-cutting nature of NAGPRA work, spanning cultural affairs, education, humanities, and legal or justice-related services, along with other related areas as described in the notice.
The opportunity was created on December 19, 2019, with an application deadline of April 10, 2020, due by 11:59 PM Pacific Time. Awards were capped at $15,000 per award (award ceiling), with an anticipated total of about 10 awards. Overall, this grant program is a targeted funding source meant to help institutions and governments complete NAGPRA repatriation actions by covering essential logistical and treatment costs involved in returning human remains and cultural items to the rightful descendants and affiliated communities.Apply for P20AS00024
