Opportunity Summary:

The Domestic Violence Prevention Initiative (DVPI) is a competitive grant opportunity run by the Indian Health Service (IHS) focused on strengthening domestic violence prevention and response for American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) people living in urban areas. It is a limited, targeted solicitation, meaning not every organization can apply. Eligibility is restricted to Urban Indian organizations as defined under Public Law 94-437, the Indian Health Care Improvement Act (IHCIA), as amended, Title V (Urban Health organizations). The overall intent is to improve health and well-being among AI/AN communities by expanding and strengthening urban Indian health programs, with particular emphasis on mental health and domestic violence prevention services.

The main purpose of DVPI is to increase the availability and quality of domestic violence-related services in urban AI/AN communities. This includes expanding the number of services offered, increasing access to advocates, and building stronger community collaborations so urban Indian organizations can respond more effectively to domestic violence. The initiative is structured to help organizations establish and sustain programs that prevent violence against AI/AN individuals, while also improving how quickly and effectively survivors and families can receive support, referrals, safety planning, and related services in an urban setting.

Applicants proposing DVPI pilot sites are expected to build their projects around seven guiding principles that define what IHS wants these programs to accomplish. First, programs must coordinate services in urban communities to respond to local domestic violence crises, which emphasizes organized partnerships and clear pathways for survivors to receive help. Second, they must participate in a nationally coordinated program aimed at increasing access to domestic violence prevention or treatment services for survivors and their families, signaling that local work should connect to broader, coordinated efforts rather than operating in isolation. Third, they must deliver community-focused responses in the urban environment that enhance evidence-based or practice-based prevention, treatment services, or educational programming, so activities are grounded in proven approaches or recognized best practices. Fourth, they must provide communities with resources needed to develop their own urban-based, community-driven programs, reinforcing local capacity-building rather than one-time, externally dependent services. Fifth, programs must establish baseline data in their local communities, which is important for measuring progress and understanding conditions at the start of the project. Sixth, they must clearly document the level of need within the urban Indian community served, demonstrating why the proposed services are necessary and what gaps exist. Seventh, the program must be designed at a scale that can produce measurable impact, meaning goals, activities, and reach should be large enough (and defined clearly enough) to show tangible results.

Funding details indicate a small pilot-style program with a limited number of awards. IHS anticipated making 5 awards with an estimated total funding amount of $262,000. Each award was set at a fixed amount, with an award ceiling and floor both listed as $52,400, suggesting each selected applicant would receive the same funding level. The opportunity did not require cost sharing or matching funds. The funding instrument is a grant, and it falls under the health activity category. The CFDA number listed is 93.933, Demonstration Projects for Indian Health, which signals a demonstration or pilot emphasis rather than large-scale permanent service funding.
