Full Text of Announcement
I. Funding Opportunity Description
Purpose of Program: The purpose of
the NAM program is to award grants to
eligible entities to develop and enhance
capacity to provide effective instruction
and support to Native American and
Alaska Native students, including
Native Hawaiian and Native American
Pacific Islander students, who are
identified as English learners (ELs). The
goal of this program is to support the
teaching, learning, and studying of
Native American languages while also
increasing the English language
proficiency and academic achievement
of students served.
Background: Through previous
competitions, the NAM program has
funded a range of grantees that are
currently implementing 16 projects
across the country. As we are focused
on closing long-standing opportunity,
achievement, and attainment gaps that
have continued to grow, there is also a
need to increase the knowledge of what
practices work to effectively improve
learning outcomes for Native American
and Alaska Native ELs.
Congress, in the Native American
Languages Act of 1990, recognized the
fundamental importance of preserving
Native American languages. This
legislation provides that it is the policy
of the United States to—
Preserve, protect, and promote the
rights and freedom of Native Americans
to use, practice, and develop Native
American languages.
