NPS: Paul Bruhn Historic Revitalization Grant Deadline

Description

The National Park Service is now accepting applications for the FY2022 Paul Bruhn Historic Revitalization Grants Program. The Bruhn program provides recipients (referred to as prime grantees) with a single grant that is then regranted in smaller amounts to individual projects (subgrants) in rural communities. Prime grantees design and administer subgrant programs that support economic development goals and needs through physical preservation projects in their chosen service area. It is up to the prime grantee to determine what types of buildings and community resources will be eligible for subgrants.

Important Eligibility Information:

• Eligible applicants include State Historic Preservation Offices, Tribal Historic Preservation Offices, Certified Local Governments, and non-profit organizations
• Eligible subgrant properties must be listed in the National Register of Historic Places or determined eligible for listing at the National, State, or local level of significance
• Subgrant properties must be located within rural (non-urban) communities with populations less than 50,000 according to the 2020 U.S. Census.
• Prime grantees cannot use grant funds for their own properties or submit applications for individual buildings or pre-selected projects.
