What is the NEH Extending the Reach program?
It’s a new initiative to provide resources for creative humanities programming, education, and preservation efforts in 15 jurisdictions: Alabama, Alaska, Florida, Idaho, Louisiana, Missouri, Montana, Nevada, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Puerto Rico, Texas, Washington, and Wyoming. People in these areas historically have not benefited as fully as others have from NEH programs. Producers from all 50 states may receive Consultation Grants, but special consideration is given to applications from the designated areas.
