Opportunity Information: Apply for P18AS00163
The Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) Internship Program (Funding Opportunity Number P18AS00163) is a National Park Service initiative under the U.S. Department of the Interior that is designed to connect students who are currently enrolled at HBCUs with National Park Service sites and units that highlight and interpret the African American Experience. In practical terms, the program is meant to create structured internship opportunities that place HBCU students in park units where African American history, culture, and contributions are central to the site mission, giving students firsthand exposure to public history, cultural resource work, interpretation and education, visitor services, and related career pathways tied to the stewardship of nationally significant places.
This opportunity is listed as a discretionary funding action and uses a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, reflecting that the work is carried out through a partnership arrangement with substantial involvement from the National Park Service rather than as a simple pass-through grant. The activity category is Employment, Labor and Training (CFDA 15.931), which signals that the core purpose is workforce development and experiential learning. The anticipated federal funding amount is up to an award ceiling of $90,000, with one expected award, indicating a single partner organization would manage or support the internship program for the period covered by the task agreement.
Eligible applicants, as stated in the notice, are nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, other than institutions of higher education. That eligibility boundary suggests the National Park Service intended to work through a nonprofit partner (for example, an organization experienced in conservation corps programming, youth and internship placement, or workforce development) rather than making awards directly to colleges or universities for this particular action.
A key detail is that this posting is a Notice of Intent only and is not open for competition. The notice explains that the task agreement associated with this internship effort is being issued under an existing cooperative agreement (P15AC00020) that was already awarded through a competitive process. As a result, there is no application window, no submissions are being accepted, and the posting is informational rather than a solicitation. In short, the government is signaling its intent to fund or implement the internship activity through a pre-selected agreement vehicle, rather than inviting new applicants at this time.Apply for P18AS00163
