| Description: |
The National Park Service’s (NPS) African American Civil Rights Grant Program (AACR) will document, interpret, and preserve the sites and stories related to the African American struggle to gain equal rights as citizens as well as the transatlantic slave trade. The NPS 2008 report, Civil Rights in America, A Framework for Identifying Significant Sites, will serve as a guide in determining the appropriateness of proposed projects and properties. AACR Preservation Grants are funded by the Historic Preservation Fund (HPF), administered by the NPS, and will fund a broad range of history projects for historic sites including: survey and inventory, National Register nominations, oral histories and more. Grants are awarded through a competitive process and do not require non-Federal match. There are separate funding announcements for physical preservation projects and for historical research/documentation projects. Funding announcement P21AS00200 is for physical preservation of historic sites only; P21AS00199 is for historical research/documentation/survey/nomination projects. Please ensure you apply under the correct opportunity number for your project. There is a new Historic Equal Rights grant program under P21AS00201 for physical preservation only of sites involved in the struggle for all Americans civil rights. FY2020 Public Law 116-94 provides $15.5 million for the AACR Grant Program. |
