FY2025 Historic Preservation Fund - Underrepresented Communities Grants

The National Park Service's Underrepresented Communities Grant Program is intended to expand listings in the National Register of Historic Places to include communities that are currently underrepresented. URC grants are funded by the Historic Preservation Fund and administered by the NPS. Projects include surveys and nominations of historic sites associated with underrepresented communities. Every URC grant project must result in at least one new or amended nomination to the National Register of Historic Places. Key points to consider for this opportunity include: • The grant program is limited to specific types of applicants, including State Historic Preservation Offices, Tribal Historic Preservation Offices, and nonprofit organizations. • The estimated funding for this opportunity is $1,250,000, with an award floor of $15,000 and an award ceiling of $100,000. • Applicants must submit their applications electronically by the deadline, and applications received after the deadline will not be reviewed or considered for award. • The application process involves submitting a detailed project description, budget, and other supporting documents. • The project timeline and milestones should be provided in the application, but the exact project duration is not specified.
