Opportunity Summary:
The FY 2010 Special Diabetes Program for Indians (SDPI) Community Directed Grant Program is a competitive funding opportunity offered by the Indian Health Service (IHS) to strengthen diabetes prevention and treatment efforts in American Indian and Alaska Native communities. The program is intended to help grantees implement community-driven approaches that respond to locally identified diabetes needs, with an emphasis on measurable improvements in health outcomes. It is authorized under H.R. 6331, the Medicare Improvement for Patients and Providers Act of 2008 (Section 303 of Public Law 110-275), as well as the Snyder Act (25 U.S.C. 13), and is listed under CFDA 93.237.
This funding targets practical, on-the-ground activities that either reduce diabetes risk among people who are at risk, support individuals with newly diagnosed diabetes, improve the quality of care for people already living with diabetes, and/or reduce diabetes-related complications. A key expectation is that funded projects are not generic wellness efforts, but structured diabetes programs tied to community priorities and capable of demonstrating results. To support consistency and evidence-based implementation across sites, applicants must submit a program plan that integrates at least one IHS Diabetes Best Practice. In addition, applicants must have an evaluation plan that includes tracking outcome measures, meaning grantees are expected to measure and report progress rather than only describe services provided.
Eligibility is limited and specific. The announcement is open only to existing SDPI grantees that already have an active SDPI grant in place and that can demonstrate compliance with prior grant terms and conditions. Eligible applicant types include federally recognized Tribes operating Indian health programs under the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act (ISDEAA, Public Law 93-638); Tribal organizations operating such programs under ISDEAA agreements; Urban Indian health programs operating a Title V Urban Indian Health Program (including those currently funded through IHS grants or contracts under Title V of the Indian Health Care Improvement Act, Public Law 94-437); and IHS facilities, subject to the special application rules described in the notice. The announcement also makes clear who cannot apply: non-profit Tribal organizations and national or regional health boards are not eligible, consistent with past Tribal consultation. Applications that do not meet eligibility requirements are returned without review.
The program also sets limits on how many awards an organization can receive and clarifies how Tribes and IHS facilities may apply. Only one SDPI Community Directed diabetes grant will be awarded per entity. If a Tribe submits an application, its local IHS facility cannot submit a separate application. If the Tribe does not apply, then the local IHS facility may apply. If a Tribe is funded, it may subcontract with a local IHS facility to provide specific clinical services, but the Tribe remains the primary grantee and the federal facility participates through a subcontract arrangement.
In terms of funding scale and timing, IHS anticipated making about 150 awards, with an estimated total program funding level of $104,800,000. The stated award floor is $22,582 and the award ceiling is $6,000,000, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The opportunity was posted on April 1, 2010, with an application deadline of April 30, 2010, and it was archived on May 30, 2010. Importantly, this announcement emphasizes that it is not a simple continuation application in the same way that prior Community Directed grant cycles may have been structured; it is a competitive process for continuation funding for eligible existing SDPI grantees, and applicants must compete under the requirements described.
Administrative details include the funding opportunity number HHS-2010-IHS-SDPI-0004, the activity category of Health, and the funding instrument type of Grant.
