Opportunity Summary:
The FY 2010 Special Diabetes Program for Indians (SDPI) Community Directed Grant Program is a competitive grant opportunity administered by the Indian Health Service (IHS) to strengthen diabetes prevention and treatment efforts in American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) communities. The program is designed to help communities address locally identified diabetes-related needs through practical, community-directed strategies that can reduce diabetes risk among people who are at risk, support individuals with newly diagnosed diabetes, improve the quality of care for those already living with diabetes, and ultimately reduce diabetes-related complications. A core expectation is that funded projects are not generic or purely aspirational; they must be rooted in community needs and built around proven approaches.
Eligibility is narrow and is specifically limited to existing SDPI grantees that already have an active SDPI grant and are in compliance with prior grant terms and conditions. Eligible applicants include federally recognized Tribes and Tribal organizations operating Indian health programs under the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act (ISDEAA; Pub. L. 93-638) through contracts, grants, cooperative agreements, or compacts with IHS. Urban Indian health programs operating Title V Urban Indian Health Program services under the Indian Health Care Improvement Act are also eligible, as are certain IHS facilities as referenced in the full announcement. In other words, this funding is intended to continue and strengthen established SDPI efforts rather than bring in brand-new organizations that have not previously participated.
The program is authorized under federal law, including H.R. 6331, the Medicare Improvement for Patients and Providers Act of 2008 (Section 303 of Pub. L. 110-275), and the Snyder Act (25 U.S.C. 13). It is listed in the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance under CFDA 93.437, reflecting its federal public health role focused on diabetes prevention and treatment projects for AI/AN populations. The activity category is health, the funding instrument is a grant, and there is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which lowers the financial barrier for eligible entities and allows more of the awarded dollars to go directly into program delivery.
A key feature of this funding opportunity is the expectation that projects incorporate evidence-informed practice and measurable accountability. Applicants are expected to submit a program plan that integrates at least one IHS Diabetes Best Practice, signaling that the interventions should align with established clinical or community best practices recognized by IHS rather than relying solely on untested local ideas. In addition, applicants must have a program evaluation plan that includes tracking outcome measures. This focus on outcomes means grantees are expected to demonstrate results, not just deliver activities. While the announcement summary does not enumerate specific required metrics, the intent is clear: programs should be able to show changes connected to diabetes prevention, care quality, or complication reduction over time.
In terms of funding scale and timing, IHS anticipated about 70 awards under this announcement, with an estimated total funding amount of $104,800,000. Individual award amounts could vary widely, with an award floor of $26,000 and a ceiling of $5,000,000. The opportunity was posted on December 23, 2009, and the application closing date was February 19, 2010, with the archive date listed as March 21, 2010. The funding opportunity number is HHS-2010-IHS-SDPI-0003, and the posted listing describes it as a discretionary grant opportunity.
For applicants needing help accessing the full announcement, the notice directs inquiries to IHS grants policy staff, specifically Tammy Bagley, Senior Grants Policy Analyst (phone 301-443-7172). Overall, the FY 2010 SDPI Community Directed grant opportunity emphasizes continued investment in established SDPI grantees, community-driven diabetes programming for AI/AN populations, use of at least one recognized IHS best practice, and a clear evaluation approach that tracks outcomes to show real-world impact.
