The Santa Ynez Band of Mission Indians received a $100,000.00 Project Grant from the U.S. Department of the Interior's National Park Service under the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) Grant Program (CFDA 15.922). The grant will be used to identify and consult with five institutions on NAGPRA-eligible ancestral remains and funerary objects belonging to the tribe. The goal is to update existing NAGPRA inventories and request repatriation as appropriate, which will benefit the Santa Ynez Band of Chumash Indians in their efforts to repatriate ancestral remains and associated funerary objects. The project will be conducted over a two-year period from October 1, 2024, to September 30, 2026.
