Opportunity Information: Apply for P19AS00031
Engaging Young Adults with Community-Based Conservation (Funding Opportunity Number P19AS00031) is a National Park Service discretionary grant offered through the U.S. Department of the Interior, using a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument. The opportunity sits in the Education activity category under CFDA 15.931, reflecting a focus on learning and workforce development tied to conservation and public lands work. It was created on February 25, 2019, with an original application closing date of March 6, 2019, indicating a short application window typical of task-driven or continuation-style federal awards.
The award is designed to operate under an existing cooperative agreement framework already in place between the National Park Service and American Youthworks (AYW), specifically Cooperative Agreement Number P15AC0030. In practical terms, this means the funding announcement supports a task agreement that fits within the broader, pre-established partnership terms and conditions. Rather than creating a brand-new program structure, the task agreement approach uses the existing cooperative agreement to carry out specific, on-the-ground projects while maintaining the standard NPS cooperative agreement expectations for collaboration, reporting, and oversight.
Programmatically, the work supported is hands-on community-based conservation that engages young adults through real project experience. The activities described include trail construction, habitat restoration, fire mitigation, historic preservation, parkland improvement, and disaster relief. The geographic scope is centered on Texas, with work extending to surrounding states as needed. The project types suggest a mix of natural resource stewardship (restoration and fire mitigation), cultural resource protection (historic preservation), visitor and community infrastructure improvements (trails and parkland improvement), and capacity to respond to urgent needs (disaster relief), all of which can be used as structured service and training experiences for youth or young adult crews.
Eligibility for applicants is limited to nonprofits with IRS 501(c)(3) status that are not institutions of higher education. The opportunity anticipates a single award with an award ceiling of $46,343, which signals a modest, targeted funding level likely intended to support a specific set of deliverables under the existing NPS-AYW cooperative relationship. Overall, the opportunity is best understood as a focused, project-based cooperative agreement action that leverages conservation work to engage young adults while delivering tangible improvements to parks and public lands in Texas and nearby regions.Apply for P19AS00031
