State Board Programming Grants: The National Historical Publications and Records Commission seeks proposals that strengthen the nations archival network through activities undertaken by state historical records advisory boards (SHRABs).

The Commission will award grants to State Historical Records Advisory Boards to:

Operate state-based regrant and scholarship programs that advance access to historical records
Collaborate on projects with other organizations to address common problems or shared opportunities within a state or among a consortium of state archives
Hold or participate in meetings and public forums on statewide or national archival issues.
Award Information: Applicants may apply for grants of up to $40,000 for 12-month projects or up to $80,000 for 24-month projects. A portion of the funding may be used for costs related to administer and operate proposed board activities.
