Requirements and Eligibility

• Frequently Asked Questions
• Full list of what the USHRAB does and does not fund
• Unfortunately, due to changes at the federal level, we are no longer able to fund newspaper projects. We understand this is a huge disappointment and we believe your historical newspapers remain a vital resource for all kinds of historical research. We hope to be able to provide a list of resources that can help soon.
• We have changed our publicity requirements. You MUST publicize your project, which we encourage you to at multiple steps along the way - when you first receive notice of your funding award; as your work progresses; and once your project is complete. We will be requiring examples of publicity from grant recipients in both the Interim and Final reports. We have created a publicity guide to assist with these requirements.
