Opportunity Summary:
The Shoshone Bannock Tribes Tribal Youth Educational Opportunities grant (Funding Opportunity Number L14AS00260) was a discretionary federal funding opportunity offered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to support tribal youth education and career development tied specifically to cultural resource management and natural resource management. The overall purpose was to create or expand opportunities that help tribal youth build practical skills, gain exposure to career pathways, and participate in hands-on learning connected to managing, protecting, and interpreting cultural and natural resources.
This opportunity was offered as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the awarding agency expects to have substantial involvement during the project period rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. The funding activity category was Natural Resources, and the CFDA listing associated with it was 15.224 (Cultural Resource Management), signaling that the work was expected to align with cultural resources priorities such as heritage preservation, archaeological and cultural site stewardship, and related education and workforce development activities that tie youth engagement to real-world resource management needs.
The program anticipated making one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $100,000. The listed award ceiling was $15,000 and the award floor was $0, indicating awards could vary in size up to that cap depending on the proposal and project design, although the total funding estimate suggested broader program funding might have been planned across the effort. A cost sharing or matching requirement applied, meaning applicants were expected to contribute non-federal resources (cash and/or allowable in-kind contributions) to help support project costs.
Eligibility was limited to federally recognized Native American tribal governments, which in practice meant tribal governments meeting the federal recognition requirement were the intended applicants. The timeline was short: it was posted on July 24, 2014, created on August 13, 2014, originally due August 13, 2014, and later extended to a current closing date of August 18, 2014. The opportunity was archived on September 30, 2014, so it is no longer active.
For applicants who needed the official announcement materials and application package, the notice directed them to use the application tab in the posting to download full instructions. For access issues or submission-related questions, the listed contact was Christine Shaver, Grants Management Officer at BLM, reachable at (208) 373-3817 and cshaver@blm.gov (the email was shown twice in the notice).
