Opportunity Information: Apply for P14AS00147
The National Park Service (NPS) is planning to award a grant of $25,000 to Wilderness Inquiry Inc. for a project titled "Engaging Youth in River Recreation and Conservation on NPS and Related Waterways." This cooperative agreement aims to enhance outdoor recreation and education opportunities, particularly for low-income and disadvantaged youth across various backgrounds.
The initiative is focused on engaging large groups of young people in river-related recreation and education through partnerships with schools, local agencies, and nonprofits. Key goals include teaching responsible use of public lands, providing skill development, and creating pathways to service and employment. The NPS seeks to foster appreciation and understanding of public waterways while ensuring access for all.
Wilderness Inquiry has a proven track record in safely integrating large groups into outdoor activities and is already engaged in similar projects with the NPS. The expectation is that this collaboration will yield benefits for youth engagement and conservation efforts.
Significantly, this award does not follow a competitive bidding process due to Wilderness Inquiry's unique qualifications and the intent for continuity in ongoing programs. The NPS has previously supported related activities with over $100,000 in in-kind contributions, reinforcing the historical partnership between the organizations.
The anticipated length of the agreement is five years from the date of the award, aligning with the objectives to provide meaningful experiences and education in river recreation for youth in urban and underserved communities.Apply for P14AS00147
