The National Historical Publications and Records Commission's (NHPRC) State Board Programming Grant program is a significant source of support for SHRAB operations and its sponsored projects. Nevada SHRAB's participation in the review of grant proposals submitted to NHPRC makes cultural heritage entities across Nevada eligible to receive NHPRC funding. The Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) also offers awards that may support SHRAB projects. Nevada's SHRAB has undertaken projects for state-wide surveys, public awareness, education and training, and re-grants supported by NHPRC and IMLS funds. For more information see the following:
