Opportunity Listing - Tribal Tourism Grant Program (TTGP) Tribal Tourism Grant Program (TTGP) Agency: Bureau of Indian Affairs Assistance Listings: 15. 032 -- Indian Economic Development Last Updated: June 25, 2026 View version history on Grants.
gov The U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI), Office of the Assistant Secretary–Indian Affairs (Indian Affairs), through the Office of Indian Economic Development (OIED), solicits proposals from eligible entities (see Eligibility Section) for tourism grants focused on increasing visitors to existing Tribal tourism operations through facilitation, promotion, and enhancing visibility.
The Tribal Tourism Grant Program (TTGP) funding strives to achieve substantial community benefits by facilitating and strengthening Tribal tourism activities, enhancing visitor experiences, and increasing visibility and... access to Tribal destinations. These efforts support economic development and contribute to improved community well-being.
The TTGP is not to be used to create or establish new Tribal tourism operations (see Definitions). The competitively selected projects will benefit from technical assistance provided by the NATIVE Act Cooperative Agreement awardee, as well as the OIED. This approach will enable Tribes to enhance tourism experiences, strengthen destination positioning, and increase visitation.
Projects should address clearly defined tourism challenges and opportunities and be aligned with the economic development goals and priorities of the Tribal community. The OIED will administer this grant program through the Division of Economic Development (DED) funded under a non-recurring appropriation budget. Congress appropriates funds on a year-to-year basis.
While TTGP projects may extend over several years, the DED will not fund beyond the period of performance. The grant awards are for a project and budget period of 24 months. Neither the DOI nor Indian Affairs will be held responsible for proposal or application preparation costs.
Publication of this announcement does not obligate DOI or Indian Affairs to award any specific grant or to obligate all or any part of available funds.

A new Interior Department policy routes every grant and cooperative agreement of $50,000 or more through two political appointees for manual review. The result is a backlog of roughly 1,400 grants and $362 million in delayed funding — up from fewer than 10 two years ago. Here is how the bottleneck works, why it matters even for recipients who already have an award letter, and what nonprofits, universities, states, and tribes should do to protect projects that depend on Interior dollars.
