At SOAS, University of London, we have a specialist MA programme in
Language Support and Revitalisation that covers issues like language policy
and planning, language revitalisation and applied language documentation --
see http://www.hrelp.org/courses/ma/

Our students also do hands-on work with the Sylheti community in London,
working with a local community centre 15 minutes walk from the university.

Hope this helps (and widens perspectives beyond the US :-)
