Opportunity Summary:
The Injury Prevention Program (IPP) is a competitive cooperative agreement funding opportunity offered by the Indian Health Service (IHS) to support American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) communities in reducing injury-related deaths and disabilities. The opportunity is listed under CFDA 93.284 and is authorized under the Snyder Act (25 U.S.C. 13) and Section 301(a) of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 241(a)), as amended. The overall goal is not just to run short-term projects, but to strengthen the long-term ability of Tribes and Tribal, urban, and nonprofit Indian organizations to plan, implement, and evaluate sustainable, evidence-based injury prevention efforts with strong local ownership.
The funding is rooted in a major public health concern: injury is a leading cause of death and disability in AI/AN communities, and for AI/AN people ages 1 to 44, injuries account for more deaths than all other causes combined (as cited by IHS in Trends in Indian Health 2002-2003). In response, IHS is emphasizing capacity-building so communities can identify their highest-priority injury issues, select strategies that are proven to work, and build comprehensive programs that last beyond the grant period. The program encourages a comprehensive injury prevention approach that combines three core elements: education (helping people understand risks and safer behaviors), enforcement or policy development (strengthening laws, policies, or institutional rules that reduce hazards), and environmental modifications (changing physical environments to make injuries less likely).
IPP specifically targets two priority injury areas: motor vehicle-related injuries and unintentional fall prevention for older adults, particularly ages 65 and above. Applicants are expected to align their work with effective, evidence-based strategies, including those highlighted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) injury prevention resources. In practical terms, this means applicants should be proposing interventions that have credible support behind them, rather than purely awareness campaigns without measurable prevention impact.
The opportunity is structured into two main parts. Part I supports Tribal injury prevention programming for applicants serving a minimum IHS user population of 2,500. (For this program, IHS user population refers to AI/AN individuals who have used IHS-funded services at least once during the past three years.) Part I has two subcategories: Part I(a) is for new applicants that have not received IHS Injury Prevention funding in the prior two years, while Part I(b) is for previously funded applicants, specifically the 2005-2010 Tribal Injury Prevention Cooperative Agreement Program (TIPCAP) grantees. Part II supports applicants proposing three-year projects using effective strategies and has no population requirement, which can make it a better fit for smaller communities or organizations that do not meet the Part I user population threshold.
From a funding and administrative standpoint, this is a discretionary grant competition using a cooperative agreement model, meaning IHS is likely to have substantial involvement in the project beyond simply issuing funds (cooperative agreements typically involve more federal collaboration than standard grants). The announcement anticipated up to 40 awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $2,275,000. Individual awards ranged from a $10,000 floor to an $80,000 ceiling. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which reduces barriers for applicants that may not have access to non-federal matching funds.
Eligible applicants include federally recognized Indian Tribes, Tribal organizations, and Urban Indian organizations, as defined in federal statute. In general, this includes Tribes and Alaska Native entities recognized as eligible for federal Indian programs and services, Tribal organizations controlled by Tribal governments or Indian-controlled boards with maximum Indian participation, and nonprofit Urban Indian organizations based in urban centers and governed by Indian-controlled boards designed to ensure broad community participation and the ability to collaborate with other public and private partners.
Key logistical details in the original posting include a posted date of April 23, 2010, and an application deadline of May 28, 2010 (with the archive date listed as June 27, 2010). The funding opportunity number is HHS-2010-IHS-IPP-0001, and the administering agency is the Indian Health Service.
