Eligible applicants include institutions of higher education, Indian Tribes or Tribal organizations, and non-profit entities partnering with certain entities. Applications will be evaluated based on selection criteria outlined in the notice, including need, quality of project design, quality of project services, quality of the management plan, and adequacy of resources.
