The Administration for Native Americans (ANA), announces funds for a National Center for Native Training and Technical Assistance (the Center). The Center will be ANA’s primary provider of training and technical assistance (TTA). The goal is to build the capacity of ANA applicants and recipients to implement successful strategies and facilitate sustainable and successful outcomes that strengthen Native American communities. The beneficiaries of TTA are tribes and Native American communities, including American Indians, Alaska Natives, Native Hawaiians, and other Native Pacific Islander organizations and their partners. The Center will assist applicants and recipients to plan, develop, and implement community-driven projects aligned with ANA’s goals. The Center will also train communities on leveraging additional resources, complying with federal requirements, and sustaining projects past ANA funding. ANA expects the Center to use innovative and user-friendly solutions for providing TTA in both virtual and in-person formats. The Center will also focus on collecting data to better understand how beneficiaries interact with ANA’s TTA and how to improve the success of funded projects. The project will have a 36-month project period with three 12-month budget periods.
