Opportunity Summary:
The National HIV Program grant opportunity is a competitive cooperative agreement offered by the Indian Health Service (IHS), specifically through the Office of Clinical and Preventive Services (OCPS). It is designed to strengthen HIV/AIDS testing and related services for American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) communities across the United States. The underlying public health goal is to reduce HIV incidence by making HIV testing more routine, improving access to HIV-related services, and reducing stigma that can keep people from getting tested. The program emphasizes expanding the number of AI/AN individuals who know their HIV status, since awareness is a key entry point to treatment, prevention services, and partner services.
The funded work centers on implementing routine HIV screening for adults in line with the 2006 Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines, along with pre-test and post-test counseling when appropriate. Applicants are expected to use the cooperative agreement to expand or improve testing approaches, which may include rapid HIV testing and/or conventional HIV antibody testing. Beyond simply increasing the volume of tests, the opportunity also aims to identify and document best practices for enhancing HIV testing in AI/AN settings, meaning awardees are generally expected to generate practical, replicable strategies that can be shared and used more broadly within Indian health systems.
This opportunity is authorized under two key federal authorities: the Snyder Act (25 U.S.C. 13) and the Indian Health Care Improvement Act (25 U.S.C. 1602(a)(b)(42)(43)). It is listed in the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance under CFDA number 93.933 (Demonstration Projects for Indian Health), signaling its role as a demonstration-style investment focused on improving service delivery and prevention outcomes. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates substantial involvement by the federal agency during the project period compared with a standard grant, often through collaboration on program implementation, reporting, and dissemination of lessons learned.
Funding for the single Fiscal Year 2010 cycle was structured for up to six awards. The estimated total program funding was $540,000, and each individual award was set at a fixed amount of $90,000 (both the award floor and award ceiling are listed as $90,000). There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, reducing financial barriers for eligible tribal applicants. The opportunity was posted on March 23, 2010, with an original application deadline of April 30, 2010, later extended to May 14, 2010, and it was archived on June 13, 2010.
Eligibility was limited to federally recognized AI/AN Tribes (as defined under 25 U.S.C. 1603(d)), Tribal Organizations (as defined under 25 U.S.C. 1603(e)), and consortia made up of two or more eligible Tribes and/or Tribal Organizations. In practical terms, the program was targeted to entities directly connected to tribal governance and tribally affiliated health service delivery systems, aligning the funding with organizations positioned to implement culturally relevant, community-driven HIV testing strategies.
