What the grant funds
The project’s goal is to improve knowledge and understanding of the history of Indian boarding schools, policies, and DoD’s role to lead to more informed decision-making, accountability, and consultation with American Indian tribes and Native Hawaiian Organizations. This research will be part of the background research necessary for DoD to fulfill its requirement from FY23 National Defense Authorization Bill (H.R. 7900, P. 204-205) to document its role in the establishment and sustainment of Indian boarding schools in the United States from 1819 through the 1960s. Additionally, the research will support the U.S. Department of the Interior in its efforts to locate any records that may relate to the Federal Indian boarding school system.
