Opportunity Information: Apply for P20AS00098
The Japanese American Confinement Sites Grant Program is a discretionary grant opportunity run by the Department of the Interior, National Park Service (CFDA 15.933), designed to support preservation and public understanding of places connected to the World War II incarceration of Japanese Americans. The program funds work that protects and interprets historic confinement sites so that the stories tied to these locations remain visible and accessible, and so future generations can learn from them. A central purpose of the program, as reflected in the authorizing legislation, is to help these sites stand as lasting evidence of the nations commitment to equal justice under the law.
Funding is aimed at a wide range of preservation and education activities tied directly to eligible confinement sites and associated history. Supported projects can include efforts to identify and document sites, conduct research, and evaluate historical significance, as well as interpretive work that helps the public understand what happened at these locations. The program also supports hands-on preservation actions such as protection, restoration, repair, and in some cases acquisition of historic resources connected to confinement. In practice, this means projects might range from historical surveys and archival work to rehabilitating surviving structures, stabilizing landscapes, installing interpretive exhibits, or developing educational materials linked to specific sites and experiences.
Eligibility is broad and intentionally includes many types of organizations that can credibly carry out preservation or interpretation work. Eligible applicants include private nonprofit organizations, educational institutions, and government entities at the state, local, and tribal levels, along with other public entities. The listing notes eligibility as "Others" with additional details provided in the opportunity materials, but the overall intent is clear: the program is meant to reach both community-based organizations and public agencies that are actively engaged in safeguarding these places and their stories.
In the posted funding details for this opportunity cycle (Funding Opportunity Number P20AS00098), awards are issued as grants, with an award ceiling of up to 3,000,000 per award and an expectation of about 20 awards. The source information also notes that the legislation authorizes up to 38,000,000 across the entire life of the program, meaning the program is structured as a multi-year investment in preservation and education rather than a one-time effort. For this specific notice, the opportunity was created on Sep 09, 2020, with an original closing date of Nov 09, 2020, indicating a defined application window for that round of funding.
Overall, this grant program is about ensuring that the physical places tied to Japanese American confinement during World War II are not lost to neglect, redevelopment, or fading public memory. By funding both preservation work and interpretation, it supports projects that keep these sites intact while also helping communities, students, and visitors understand the history, the civil rights implications, and the ongoing relevance of what occurred.Apply for P20AS00098
