Opportunity Summary:

The National Collaborative for Womens History Sites Historic Preservation opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P12AC30330) is a National Park Service (NPS) notice stating the agency's intent to make a single cooperative agreement award to the National Collaborative for Womens History Sites (NCWHS). Rather than an open, competitive grant round, this posting functions as a public notice that NPS plans to work directly with NCWHS because the organization is described as uniquely qualified for the project. The focus of the work is historic preservation, specifically strengthening the research, documentation, and interpretation of women's history at historic sites connected to the National Park System and related preservation efforts.

The core purpose of the cooperative agreement is collaboration for mutual benefit and for the broader public benefit, with an emphasis on ensuring that current and future generations can better understand and enjoy the nation's cultural and historic resources. In practical terms, NCWHS is expected to support NPS parks and programs by providing specialized assistance such as archival and repository research, and by developing historical information that can directly inform preservation decisions and interpretation programs. The NPS frames its role as providing the on-the-ground landscape of parks and historic resources that make this history accessible, while NCWHS contributes subject-matter expertise devoted specifically to women's history at historic sites. The intended outcome is richer, better-researched public history and more accurate, inclusive interpretation of places where women's history is significant.

Administratively, the opportunity is categorized as "Other," with the category explanation explicitly identifying the activity as Historic Preservation. The eligible applicant type listed is nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), but the announcement makes clear the intent to award to NCWHS specifically, and it lists an expected number of awards of one. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement indicated. The posting date and creation date are April 12, 2012, with an original and current closing date of April 20, 2012, and an archive date of May 20, 2012. Funding fields such as estimated total funding, award ceiling, and award floor are shown as zero in the source data, which typically signals that the public notice is focused on the intent to award and partnership structure rather than providing a competed funding range in the listing.
