Opportunity Summary:
The Indian Health Service (IHS) released a discretionary cooperative agreement opportunity titled "Indigenous Child Health - Strong Communities, Healthy Children" (Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2013-IHS-HPDP-0001). The award is designed to support a close, hands-on partnership between IHS and the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) to jointly sponsor and help deliver the 5th International Meeting on Indigenous Child Health, scheduled for April 19-21, 2013 in Portland, Oregon. Rather than funding a broad set of unrelated projects, the core intent is very specific: to underwrite and coordinate a major international convening focused on Indigenous child health, bringing together experts who serve and study American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN), First Nations, Inuit, and Metis children and families.
The meeting is framed as a forum for child health providers, public health practitioners, and researchers who are committed to Indigenous communities to exchange knowledge and strengthen practice. A central aim is to improve understanding of the social and health needs of Indigenous children across different countries and systems, and to create space for Indigenous researchers and health professionals to present their findings and lived experience. A strong emphasis is placed on identifying and sharing best and promising community practices, with the idea that effective local approaches can be discussed, adapted, and scaled through multi-level engagement across clinicians, community leaders, researchers, and health systems. The overarching long-term goal described in the announcement is to improve quality of care, health outcomes, and access to health services for Indigenous children.
This opportunity is structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning IHS anticipates substantial involvement in the funded activities rather than acting only as a passive funder. The partnership also explicitly includes key Canadian counterparts: the Canadian Paediatric Society and the First Nations and Inuit Health Branch of Health Canada, underscoring the international scope and the intent to compare experiences and strategies across borders.
Funding is limited and targeted. IHS expected to make a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an estimated total funding amount of $100,000. The award ceiling is $100,000 and the award floor is $95,000, indicating the funding range is narrow and essentially supports one primary recipient to carry out the conference sponsorship and related coordination activities. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement listed.
Eligibility is primarily directed to nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education), with an additional eligibility category noted as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)." The narrative highlights the unique role of the American Academy of Pediatrics, stating that no other U.S. organization has a mission spanning all aspects of child health in the same way, including the health of Indigenous children. In practice, the eligibility language and the stated purpose strongly suggest the opportunity is tailored for collaboration with AAP to support the conference.
Key administrative dates show the opportunity was posted and created on January 30, 2013. The original closing date was February 25, 2013, later extended to a current closing date of March 1, 2013, with an archive date of March 31, 2013. The funding activity category is Health, and the administering agency is the Indian Health Service.
