Native Language Preservation and Maintenance Assessment

The Administration for Native Americans (ANA), within the Administration for Children and Families (ACF), announces the availability of Fiscal Year (FY) 2009 funds for new community-based activities under ANA's Native Language Preservation and Maintenance Assessment program area. Native Language Assessment grants are used to conduct the assessment necessary to identify the current status of the Native American language(s) to be addressed. Purpose of Modification: To clarify how to figure the non- Federal share that is required, per Section III, Part 2 Cost Sharing or Matching of the PA. Currently, the PA explains the NFS calculation using incorrect figures. Both the Federal request amount and the total project costs are identified as $125,000, with a NFS amount of $25,000. To correct the calculation, the Federal request amount should be revised to $100,000.
