This award is funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5). Hopa Mountain, an educational nonprofit organization based in Bozeman, Montana, will pilot an innovative Native Science Fellows program for high school and college students to participate in community-based science organizations in an effort to increase their engagement in higher education and geosciences careers. There are four primary goals: (1) To increase the number of Native American students (ages 15-35) who are engaged in community-based geosciences education and careers; (2) To provide role models and work experience for Native American high school and college students interested in the geosciences; (3) To develop a career ladder network of Native students that are interested in pursuing geosciences careers; and (4) To build a network of community-based science professionals who are committed to the success of Native students and provide on-going support for personal, academic and professional success. Specific objectives of the Native Science Fellows pilot program are to match promising Native American high school and college students with summer and school year fellowships that will provide them with paid, hands-on field work and professional experiences to build skills and pathways to academic and careers in the geosciences. These students will also be linked to geoscience mentors and supportive Native Science Fellows peer and professional networks.

该奖项根据 2009 年美国复苏和再投资法案（公法 111-5）提供资金。 霍帕山 (Hopa Mountain) 是一家位于蒙大拿州博兹曼的非营利性教育组织，将试行一项创新的本土科学研究员计划，让高中生和大学生参与社区科学组织，以提高他们对高等教育和地球科学职业的参与度。 有四个主要目标： (1) 增加从事社区地球科学教育和职业的美国原住民学生（15-35 岁）的数量； (2) 为对地球科学感兴趣的美国原住民高中生和大学生提供榜样和工作经验； (3) 为有兴趣从事地球科学职业的本地学生建立职业阶梯网络； (4) 建立一个以社区为基础的科学专业人员网络，致力于本土学生的成功，并为个人、学术和职业成功提供持续的支持。 原住民科学研究员试点计划的具体目标是为有前途的美国原住民高中生和大学生提供暑期和学年奖学金，为他们提供带薪实践现场工作和专业经验，以培养在地球科学领域的技能和学术和职业道路。 这些学生还将与地球科学导师以及支持本土科学研究员的同行和专业网络建立联系。
