Opportunity Information: Apply for P17AS00254
The "Association for the Study of African American Life and History Projects" opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P17AS00254) is a discretionary National Park Service (NPS) funding action under the U.S. Department of the Interior. It is published as a public notice rather than an open call for proposals, meaning it is not inviting applications from the general public and is not being competed among multiple applicants. Instead, the notice is intended to document NPS's intent to support specific project activities through a single award made without competition.
The funding instrument for this action is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates that NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the funded work beyond simply providing funds, such as collaborating on planning, coordination, deliverables, or oversight during the project period. The funded work is categorized under the Education activity area, suggesting the project focuses on educational programming, outreach, interpretation, curriculum-related work, public history activities, or similar efforts connected to African American life, history, and heritage. The associated CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) number is 15.946, which identifies the broader federal assistance program under which the award is being made.
The notice indicates there is one expected award, with an award ceiling of 1 (as listed in the source data), and it was created on May 11, 2017 with an original closing date of May 21, 2017. In this context, the closing date functions more like an administrative posting window for the public notice rather than a true application deadline, since the announcement explicitly states it is not a request for applications. Eligibility is listed as "Others," with further clarification referenced in an additional eligibility text field (not included in the provided excerpt), which often means the intended recipient is a specific type of partner organization or a specific named entity aligned with the project purpose.
In practical terms, this announcement signals that NPS planned to fund a defined set of project activities related to the Association for the Study of African American Life and History (ASALH) through a single, noncompetitive cooperative agreement, primarily to support education-oriented work tied to African American history and public understanding. It should be read as a transparency and compliance posting rather than an opportunity for new applicants to seek funding under this particular listing.Apply for P17AS00254
