Opportunity Summary:
The Native American Language Preservation and Maintenance grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HHS 2010 ACF ANA NL 0028) is a discretionary grant program offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), through the Administration for Native Americans (ANA). It was released for Fiscal Year 2010 to support community-based efforts that strengthen and sustain Native American languages. In line with ANA's broader mission, the program ties language work to long-term community well-being by promoting economic and social self-sufficiency for American Indians, Alaska Natives, Native Hawaiians, and other Native American Pacific Islanders, including communities in American Samoa, Guam, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands.
The core purpose of the funding is to help Native communities preserve and maintain their languages through practical, locally driven projects. The announcement highlights support for assessing the current status of a Native language within an established community, which can include documenting levels of fluency, identifying speaker populations by age group, and understanding where and how the language is being used. It also supports the planning, design, and implementation of language curriculum and education projects, meaning funds can be used to build or expand instructional materials, structure language programs, train instructors, and put community language education activities into practice in ways that match local language preservation goals.
Funding for the opportunity was estimated at $3.9 million total, with an expectation of about 15 awards. Individual awards were anticipated to range from $100,000 (award floor) to $300,000 (award ceiling). The CFDA listing associated with this program is 93.587, described as promoting the survival and continuing vitality of Native American languages. Cost sharing or matching was required, so applicants needed to plan for a portion of project costs to be covered through non-federal resources, consistent with the specific matching rules described in the full announcement.
Eligibility was broad within the Native community-serving landscape. Eligible applicants included federally recognized tribal governments, tribal organizations, consortia of Indian tribes, and incorporated non-federally recognized tribes. The announcement also included urban Indian centers, Alaska Native villages as defined in the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act, nonprofit village consortia, tribally controlled community colleges, tribally controlled postsecondary vocational institutions, and nonprofit Alaska Native community entities or tribal governing bodies (including IRA or traditional councils) recognized by the Bureau of Indian Affairs. In addition, nonprofit organizations representing American Indians, Alaska Natives, Native Hawaiians, and other Native American Pacific Islanders (including American Samoa, Guam, and CNMI) were eligible, and both faith-based and community organizations could apply. Individuals and foreign entities were explicitly ineligible.
Key administrative details include a posted date of March 4, 2010, and an application closing date of April 9, 2010, with the reminder that electronic submissions through Grants.gov had to be submitted no later than 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. The opportunity was archived on May 9, 2010. For applicants who could not access the full announcement online, ACF provided support through the ACF Applications Help Desk (appsupport@acf.hhs.gov). The full announcement was referenced through an ACF grants webpage link included in the notice.
