Along with such responsibilities as providing statewide coordination of regional services and documentation projects, and developing workshop curricula and publications, the State's main DHP activity is conducting a competitive grants program for projects that address DHP priorities. The statewide competitive DHP grant program provides funding for archival projects that focus on underdocumented groups and subjects in 20th-century New York. Also eligible for consideration are projects carried out by service providers such as historical service agencies, colleges and universities, professional associations, or other nonprofit institutions that provide services to historical records programs.
Consulting services are also available on a limited basis.
The Manager then encourages the repositories and organizations to seek funding through the State DHP grant program, and assists them throughout the application process. The presentation consists of slides with extensive notes and links to related sections of the grants booklet.
