Opportunity Information: Apply for P17AS00441
The Community Volunteer Ambassador Program grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P17AS00441) is a public notice from the Department of the Interior, National Park Service (NPS) stating the agency's intent to support specific project activities through a competitive process. It is listed under the "Other" opportunity category and uses a Cooperative Agreement as the funding instrument, which typically means the NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project as it is carried out, rather than simply providing funds and stepping back as with a standard grant. The funding activity category is also labeled "Other," indicating that the work does not fit neatly into a single standard program area and that additional context would normally be provided in the announcement's explanatory text.
A key point of this announcement is that it is explicitly not a request for applications. In practical terms, that language signals that the posting is meant mainly to satisfy public notice requirements and transparency expectations about the government's plan to fund a particular set of activities, rather than inviting open-ended proposals from the general public at that moment. The notice indicates the NPS intends to fund the project activities "with competition," meaning the agency anticipates selecting a recipient through a competitive selection process, even if the posting itself is not framed as an open call for applications.
The opportunity lists an expected single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an award ceiling of 1, as posted in the source data. The posting also identifies the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) number as 15.931, which is the federal assistance listing used to categorize and track the program area associated with the award. Eligibility is broadly described as "Others," with a note that further eligibility details would be explained elsewhere in the full announcement materials (for example, the agency might clarify which types of organizations qualify under "Others," such as certain nonprofits, educational institutions, or partner groups).
In terms of timing, the opportunity record shows a creation date of August 17, 2017 and an original closing date of August 27, 2017, reflecting a short window associated with the notice period in the listing. Overall, the posting functions primarily as an informational notice that the National Park Service plans to fund a Community Volunteer Ambassador Program project via a cooperative agreement, with the expectation of selecting one recipient through a competitive approach, and with eligibility and activity specifics referenced as being detailed in accompanying explanatory sections not included in the brief source excerpt.Apply for P17AS00441
