A Chair’s Award of $30,000 to support the development of educational resources for the public launch of the National Indian Boarding School Digital Archive (NIBSDA).

NABS is currently preparing the release of the National Indian Boarding School Digital Archive (NIBSDA) to the general public, within an August 2023 timeline. We are eager to develop resources and tools to support the education of NIBSDA’s features, range, and impact. This public release campaign will feature informational and tutorial resources such as videos, graphics, and digital/print media. With the financial support of NEH, NABS will be able to develop these resources in a professional and timely manner. Deliverables subject to this project will be foundational in achieving our public release campaign goals and will supplement additional efforts that NABS will leverage other resources to cover costs for digital ads--including social media and targeted banner ads. In addition to the outlined project manager line item description, NABS will also provide in-kind staff time to develop these assets and to provide oversight and direction to meet stated benchmarks.
