Synopsis
The Administration for Native Americans anticipates announcing the availability of funds and requesting applications for EAGLE: Economic Advancement Grants for Local Empowerment, supporting socioeconomic and cultural success for Native communities through business creation in regenerative agriculture, artificial intelligence, tribal energy sovereignty, and human capital development.
The primary goals are to 1) support Native capacity, health, employability, and resourcefulness; 2) foster sustainable economic growth through job creation, infrastructure, and wealth-building; and 3) accelerate economic development and optimize governance. ANA intends to fully fund FY 2026 EAGLE awards for three years, with the NOFO including multiple Program Areas (PAs): Seventh-Generation Greenhouses to expand affordable, nutritious food production and local enterprise; Microgrids to enhance energy reliability, resilience, and independence; Welders to Elders to promote workforce development and community resilience; Tradition in Action—A Native Elder Program to support cultural education, intergenerational knowledge transfer, and leadership pipelines; and Indigenous Designs to Empower and Advance Self-Determination (IDEAS) to enable community-designed solutions to priority needs.
