Native American Language Preservation and Maintenance (P&M) and the Esther Martinez Immersion (EMI)
93.587
The P&M program provides funding for projects designed to ensure continuing vitality of Native American languages. This program allows for a broad array of Native language-related projects including establishing a language program, improving an existing program, and developing language instruction and activities. The EMI program provides funding for community-based projects that ensure continuing vitality of Native languages through immersion-based instruction. EMI projects must meet the requirements for either a Native American language nest or a Native American language survival school, both of which are immersive, site-based educational programs for children in accordance with 42 USC 2991b-3(c)(7) ANA supports locally determined projects that achieve community goals through specific, measurable outcomes. In an effort to perpetuate language preservation efforts for Native communities, if appropriate, all ANA funded language projects should identify opportunities for the replication or modification of such project for use by other Native Americans; and include a plan for the preservation of the products of the Native American language project for the benefit of future generations of Native Americans and other interested persons. The American Rescue Plan Act (ARP) was established to create Emergency Grants for Native American Language Preservation and Maintenance and issue awards to entities eligible to receive assistance under subsection (a) (1) to ensure the survival and continuing vitality of Native American languages during and after the public health emergency declared by the Secretary with respect to the COVID-19 pandemic.
