Description
The Indian and Native American Program (INAP) supports employment and training activities for Indian and Native Americans throughout the United States by awarding grant funding to eligible entities at the local level for the provision of employment services.
Grant award recipients may use funding to help all eligible Indian and Native Americans (INA), including Alaska Natives and Native Hawaiians, with employment, financial assistance for education and training, and other supportive services necessary to achieve economic self-sufficiency.
Key aspects of the opportunity include:
• Eligible applicants include Native American tribal governments, Native American tribal organizations, and nonprofits having a 501(c)(3) status with the IRS.
• The opportunity aims to support employment and training activities for Indian and Native Americans.
• Grant award recipients will receive funding for a period of four years, with one grant award annually for three subsequent program years.
• The Department of Labor will not discriminate on the basis of an organization's religious character, affiliation, exercise, or lack thereof, in the selection of recipients and administration of the grant.
