What is the difference between Cane River National Heritage Area and Cane River Creole National Historical Park?

The National Park Service and Cane River National Heritage Area are closely linked. The National Park Service provides the heritage area with funding, legal guidance, technical assistance, and some administrative services. Most importantly, Cane River Creole National Historical Park, a unit of the national park system, and the heritage area are bound together by their overlapping enabling legislation (Public Law 103-499) to assist one another in the preservation and interpretation of the Cane River region.
