The National Park Service’s (NPS) Underrepresented Communities Grant Program (URC) is intended to diversify listings in the National Register of Historic Places to include communities that are currently underrepresented.
URC grants are funded by the Historic Preservation Fund (HPF), and
are administered by the NPS.
Projects include surveys and nominations of historic sites associated with communities underrepresented in the National Register.
Every URC grant project MUST result in at least one new or amended nomination to the National Register of Historic Places.
