Opportunity Summary:
The Latino Heritage Internship Program (Funding Opportunity Number P16AS00075) is a U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service (DOI-NPS) education-focused initiative designed to increase awareness of national parks and historic sites, highlight issues of accessibility, and encourage stronger involvement from the Latino community in preserving these places. A central purpose of the program is to create pathways for employment and meaningful community engagement, with particular attention to cultural resource stewardship (helping care for and protect historic and cultural resources) and interpretation (supporting how stories, history, and significance are communicated to the public through programs, exhibits, guided experiences, and related outreach). In practice, this kind of internship program typically supports hands-on learning and professional development while also building stronger connections between public lands, historic sites, and Latino communities.
This opportunity is listed as a discretionary funding action and would be carried out through a cooperative agreement, which generally means the National Park Service expects to have substantial involvement in the project rather than simply issuing a grant and stepping back. The funding activity category is Education, and it is associated with CFDA number 15.931. The notice indicates an anticipated single award, with an award ceiling of $38,756.
Importantly, the posting is a Notice of Intent rather than an open call for proposals. The notice states that no applications are being accepted because the work is being issued as a task agreement under an existing cooperative agreement (P15AC00010) that had already been awarded through a competitive process. As a result, even though the listing includes an "eligible applicants" category (nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status, other than institutions of higher education), the practical takeaway is that this particular funding notice is not currently available for new applicants to compete for. The opportunity was created and posted on March 16, 2016, and both the original and current closing date fields repeat that it is not open for applications at this time.
