GREAT FALLS – Montana’s Missing Indigenous Persons Task Force has extended the deadline for tribal colleges to apply for a grant to start and administer a database of missing American Indians.
Officials say none of the state’s seven tribal colleges applied for the $25,000 grant by the Dec. 13 deadline so the task force voted to extend the deadline to Jan. 25 with the goal of awarding the grant by mid-February.
The grant requires the database be administered by a data specialist
