Living Languages Grant Program (LLGP)

We anticipate offering a FY2023 LLGP solicitation this year in later Winter or early Spring.  Please check this page regularly when updated news of the solicitation development can be posted.

Our Division of Economic Development provides the opportunity for Tribes to receive funding to document and revitalize languages that are at risk of disappearing because of a declining native-speaker population.
