What Is The Administration for Native Americans (ANA)?

The ANA exists to promote economic self-sufficiency for American Indians, Native Hawaiians, Alaskan Natives, and Native American Pacific Islanders, including American Samoa Natives. The ANA promotes social and economic self-sufficiency in a way that encourages communities to shift away from programs that result in dependency on services and move toward projects that increase community and individual productivity through community development. This is done through SEDS, which are competitive financial assistance grants.

What Resources are available to help me apply for these grants?

The Non-Profit Tool Kit

The Association for Native Americans offers a free download of its Non-Profit Tool Kit, which assists Native Americans with creating and managing a non-profit organization. Among the many topics covered by the tool kit are grant applicant resources and grantee resources.

Funding Assistance for Native Americans

The USDA National Agricultural Library offers a comprehensive resource on its web site that lists funding assistance for Native Americans in several areas, including historical preservation, college funding, tribal energy programs as well as funding databases for rural Native communities.

The Pre-Application Training Manual

The Association for Native Americans offers a free download of its Pre-Application Training Manual, which provides prospective ANA applicants with information about the federal application process and funding opportunity announcements. It also provides information about Native Language Preservation and Maintenance and Environmental Regulatory Enhancement.
