SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This OIED announcement for the forthcoming
FY 2023 LLGP NOFO provides interested applicants time to prepare their
applications prior to the opening of the application period. The OIED
expects the official NOFO solicitation to run for approximately 90 days
on <a href="http://Grants.gov">Grants.gov</a> to receive applications. Additional information for the
FY 2023 LLGP NOFO, as well as a link to the final NOFO posting on
<a href="http://Grants.gov">Grants.gov</a>, will be available on OIED's website at the following URL:
<a href="https://www.bia.gov/service/grants/llgp">https://www.bia.gov/service/grants/llgp</a>.
The FY 2023 LLGP cohort anticipates awarding between 18 to 22
grants, ranging in value from $250,000 to $300,000 in annual funding,
for a three-year active period of performance. FY 2023 LLGP funding
supports immersion projects that can provide an ``all-of-community''
language program with measurable outcomes which will be achieved within
the period of performance. The forthcoming NOFO will provide the
structure by which the applications will be reviewed and evaluated as
they provide language immersion from a collaborative community
approach.
While OIED will not accept applications at this time, interested
applicants may submit questions to the grant program contacts. No
project shall be funded that has comparable activities previously
carried out under other federal assistance programs. The OIED
encourages applicants to conduct the required registration activities
for the System for Award Management (SAM), Unique Entity Identifier
(UEI), the Automated Standard Application for Payment (ASAP), as well
as acquire a Tribal Resolution.
The OIED anticipates the FY 2023 LLGP NOFO will publish on
<a href="http://Grants.gov">Grants.gov</a> in May 2023, which will signal the opening of the
application period. The application period will be open for 90 days.
All applications must be submitted through <a href="http://Grants.gov">Grants.gov</a>.
The required method of submitting proposals during the open
solicitation period is through <a href="http://Grants.gov">Grants.gov</a>. For information on how to
apply for grants in <a href="http://Grants.gov">Grants.gov</a>, see the instructions available at
