Opportunity Summary:

The grant opportunity titled "Intertribal Workshop Facilitator for Montana and South Dakota" (Funding Opportunity Number L12AS00008) is a discretionary funding announcement from the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). It is offered as a cooperative agreement, which usually means the selected recipient will work in coordination with BLM rather than operating entirely independently. The focus area is natural resources, and the central purpose is to create and carry out a formal process that helps solve the practical, on-the-ground challenges involved in organizing and running regional intertribal workshops. In plain terms, BLM is looking for a federally recognized Tribal government to serve in a facilitation and coordination role so these workshops can happen more consistently and effectively across the region.

The project goal is specifically described as establishing a process to formally facilitate the logistical challenges of holding regional intertribal workshops. That points to work such as coordinating schedules among multiple Tribes, arranging meeting locations and travel needs, supporting communication across participating groups, and generally making sure the planning and delivery of workshops is organized and workable. Because the opportunity is framed around logistics and facilitation, the emphasis is less on delivering a single one-time event and more on building a repeatable approach that can be used for future intertribal workshop efforts in Montana and South Dakota.

Funding for this opportunity is relatively modest and appears designed to support practical coordination work. BLM anticipated making two awards under this announcement. The estimated total funding available is $125,000. Individual award amounts fall between an award floor of $2,500 and an award ceiling of $37,000, suggesting there may be smaller and larger project scopes depending on the applicant's proposed plan and the needs being addressed. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which lowers the financial barrier for eligible Tribal governments to apply.

Eligibility is limited to Native American Tribal governments that are federally recognized. This is an important point because it narrows the applicant pool to sovereign Tribal entities rather than nonprofits, universities, state or local governments, or individuals. The listing includes CFDA number 15.239 (Management Initiatives), indicating the program classification used for federal assistance tracking and reporting.

Key timeline details show this was a time-limited, archived opportunity. The posting date was December 14, 2011, with a closing date of January 11, 2012 (both the original and current closing date are the same). The opportunity was archived on February 15, 2012, meaning it is no longer open for applications and is maintained mainly for recordkeeping and reference.

For applicants or interested parties who needed help accessing the full announcement when it was active, the listed contact was Lori Anderson, Grants Management Officer at BLM, reachable by phone at 406-896-5196 or by email at landerso@blm.gov.
