Through the Battlefield Land Acquisition Grants (BLAG), the program helps state and local governments, Tribes, and nonprofits protect eligible Revolutionary War, War of 1812, and Civil War battlefield lands by funding fee-simple or easement acquisitions with a required non-federal match. The program supports community-driven stewardship and ensures public access to preserved lands, with an emphasis on expanding preservation efforts leading up to the nation’s 250th anniversary in 2026.
