Grants typically span one to three years, with funding ranging from $50,000 to $150,000, totaling up to $400,000 for the program. Award recipients are expected to acknowledge NHPRC support in any resulting publications or products.
Eligible applicants include nonprofit organizations, academic institutions, government agencies, and recognized Native American tribes. Projects must incorporate at least one of the specified activities and meet all application requirements.
Cost-sharing is required, with applicants covering at least 50 percent of total project expenses through various means, excluding indirect costs from grant funds.
