Opportunity Summary:
The National Indian Health Outreach and Education grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HHS 2010 IHS NIHOE 0001) is a discretionary funding announcement from the Indian Health Service (IHS) designed to support outreach, education, and technical assistance related to major federal health law changes, specifically the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) and the Indian Health Care Improvement Act (IHCIA). The basic purpose is to make sure Tribes, Tribal organizations, and the broader Indian health system have clear, usable information about what these laws mean in practice for Indian health programs and for American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) communities.
Under this cooperative agreement, the selected organization (or partnered organizations applying as a single entity) would be responsible for producing a solid set of written materials that explain and interpret the key PPACA and IHCIA provisions affecting the IHS, Tribal, and Urban Indian health system (often described as the I/T/U system). This includes completing a summary and written report that highlights the major issues and expected impacts on the I/T/U system, and then translating that analysis into education-oriented materials meant for use with individual Tribes and Tribal organizations. A key feature of the project is that these documents are not meant to be released immediately at the grantee's discretion; they must be submitted to IHS for review and approval before being distributed more broadly.
Beyond written products, the award also requires the development of a detailed outreach and communication plan that uses those approved materials to reach important audiences across Indian Country. The plan must cover communication to IHS, national Tribal organizations, and Tribes and Tribal organizations in each of the 12 IHS Areas. In other words, the project is not only about creating content, but also about laying out a practical, Area-by-Area strategy for how the information will be delivered, how stakeholders will be engaged, and how education and technical assistance will be organized. This outreach plan also must be presented to IHS for review and approval, consistent with the cooperative agreement structure where IHS remains actively involved in guiding and overseeing the work.
Applicants have flexibility in how they approach the scope of work. Organizations may apply to handle selected portions of the outreach and education work, or they may form a partnership and submit one joint application, as long as the application clearly spells out which partner is responsible for which components. This structure is meant to allow organizations with complementary strengths (for example, policy analysis, communications, training delivery, and Tribal engagement) to combine capabilities to meet the project requirements.
Funding for the opportunity is fixed at an estimated total of $340,000, and both the award ceiling and floor are listed as $340,000, indicating IHS expected to make a single award for that amount (Expected Awards: 1). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The funding instrument type is a cooperative agreement, signaling substantial federal involvement compared to a typical grant, particularly around review and approval of materials and plans.
Eligibility is limited to nonprofit entities that can demonstrate national-level expertise and a strong track record in Indian health and Tribal advocacy. The announcement emphasizes that applicants should have demonstrated experience representing Tribal governments, providing services to Tribes and Tribal organizations, and working with Area Health Boards and federal agencies in ways that have advanced Indian health priorities. Applicants are also expected to show strength in promoting and supporting Indian education and in coordinating efforts to inform AI/AN communities about federal decisions affecting Tribal government interests, including healthcare improvement. In addition, applicants should have deep familiarity with national health policy and health program administration, a national AI/AN constituency, and clear alignment with the IHS mission of improving healthcare quality for AI/AN people, backed by evidence of sustained support for improving healthcare in Indian Country.
Key administrative details include a posted date of August 18, 2010, with an original and current closing date of September 8, 2010, and an archive date of October 8, 2010. The CFDA number associated with the opportunity is 93.933 (Demonstration Projects for Indian Health). Applicants needing help accessing the full announcement were directed to contact Paul Gettys, Grant Systems Manager, at 301-443-2114.
