Opportunity Information: Apply for P19AS00327
The grant listing titled "Resource Stewardship and Interpretive Interns at Lewis and Clark National Historical Park" (Funding Opportunity Number P19AS00327) is a National Park Service notice explaining its intent to make a single cooperative agreement award for a specific set of project activities, rather than an open call for proposals. It is published by the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service, and it falls under the discretionary funding category using a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument. The activity category is classified as Employment, Labor and Training, and it is associated with CFDA number 15.931, which relates to National Park Service programs.
A key point of the announcement is that it is not a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA). In practical terms, that means the National Park Service was not seeking applications from the public through this posting. Instead, the posting serves as a formal public notice that the agency planned to award financial assistance for the project described in a separate supporting document referenced as a "Notice of Intent." The text explicitly instructs the public not to submit applications, which signals the award was likely intended for a specific partner organization that meets the eligibility requirements and aligns with the project needs.
The only listed eligible applicants are nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). Even though eligibility is stated, the notice format indicates that the opportunity was not competitively open at the time of posting. The announcement includes an award ceiling of $32,852 and anticipates one award, reinforcing that it is a small, targeted assistance agreement intended to support specific intern-related work at Lewis and Clark National Historical Park. While the posting does not describe the intern duties in the text provided, the title indicates the project focuses on resource stewardship and interpretation, which commonly includes supporting natural or cultural resource projects, visitor education, and interpretive services in a park setting, typically through structured internship placements administered in collaboration with an eligible nonprofit partner.
The opportunity record lists a creation date of June 26, 2019, with an original closing date of July 7, 2019. In this context, the "closing date" functions more like an administrative window for the public notice rather than a deadline for applications, since submissions were not requested. Overall, the posting is best understood as a transparency notice: it documents that the National Park Service intended to direct a cooperative agreement (up to $32,852) to a qualified 501(c)(3) nonprofit partner to carry out internship activities related to stewardship and interpretation at Lewis and Clark National Historical Park, with one expected award and no open application process.Apply for P19AS00327
