Opportunity Information: Apply for P19AS00439
The Department of the Interior, National Park Service has issued a public notice titled "Creating Jobs and Outdoor Recreation Opportunities for Veterans and Youth" (Funding Opportunity Number P19AS00439). This posting is categorized as a discretionary opportunity and would be issued as a cooperative agreement, with the activity focus listed under education (CFDA 15.931). The announcement was created on July 29, 2019, and it is explicitly described as a National Park Service financial assistance notice of intent to award.
The most important practical point is that this is not a request for applications. In other words, the National Park Service is not soliciting proposals or opening a competitive application period through this notice. Instead, it serves as a formal transparency step to inform the public that NPS intends to make a financial assistance award related to creating job and outdoor recreation opportunities specifically benefiting veterans and youth.
The eligible applicant type identified in the source data is nonprofits that have 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, excluding institutions of higher education. The notice indicates an expected single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an award ceiling of $71,400, which implies the intended award amount is not expected to exceed that limit. Because the instrument is a cooperative agreement, the project would typically involve substantial involvement by the National Park Service in carrying out the supported activities (for example, collaboration on planning, coordination, or implementation), which is a common distinguishing feature of cooperative agreements compared to standard grants.
No application deadline or open closing date is provided in the usual sense because the notice is an intent-to-award announcement rather than a competitive funding call. Overall, the opportunity communicates NPS's intention to financially support a specific effort focused on employment and outdoor recreation programming tied to veterans and youth, with funding capped at $71,400 and directed to a qualifying 501(c)(3) nonprofit partner.Apply for P19AS00439
