Opportunity Information: Apply for P17AS00726
This funding opportunity, titled "Establish Southeast Regional Accessibility Program through Partnership" (Funding Opportunity Number P17AS00726), is a National Park Service (NPS) Southeast Regional Office (SERO) initiative under the U.S. Department of the Interior. It was offered as a discretionary award using a cooperative agreement, meaning the project is intended to be carried out with substantial involvement and collaboration from the NPS rather than being a hands-off grant. The program is classified under the Humanities funding activity category (noted as Cultural Affairs in the CFDA context) and is associated with CFDA number 15.945.
The core purpose of the opportunity is to build a regional accessibility program in the Southeast by partnering with Tools for Life, with an emphasis on increasing meaningful involvement of the disability community in park and recreation activities. The NPS intent is not only to improve physical access, but also to strengthen the broader field's understanding of what accessibility looks like in parks and recreation settings and how to plan for it in a practical, sustained way. Through the partnership, the project aims to help park and recreation leaders become more aware of accessibility needs and expectations, integrate (or "inculcate") accessibility considerations into relevant projects and planning processes, improve how agencies communicate accessibility information to the public, manage accessibility strategically rather than reactively, and develop models that can be used across the parks and recreation profession to guide accessible practices.
Eligibility for the award included public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, as well as other applicants as referenced in the opportunity's additional eligibility information (not provided in the excerpt, but indicated as requiring clarification in that section). The maximum possible award amount (award ceiling) was $98,000. The opportunity was created on August 24, 2017, and had an original closing date of September 3, 2017, indicating a short application window. The listing notes "Expected Awards: 0," which typically signals that the posting may have been intended for a specific partnership arrangement, an anticipated single project, or a situation where the number of awards was not set at the time of posting.
Overall, the opportunity is best understood as a targeted regional capacity-building effort focused on accessibility leadership and systems: improving knowledge, embedding accessibility into decision-making, strengthening public-facing communication, and creating replicable approaches that can be applied across parks and recreation organizations, all in close cooperation with the NPS Southeast Regional Office and the partner organization Tools for Life.Apply for P17AS00726
