Opportunity Summary:
The SDPI Diabetes Prevention and Healthy Heart Initiatives grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HHS 2010 IHS SDPI 0005) is a discretionary Indian Health Service (IHS) cooperative agreement designed to expand and strengthen proven approaches to diabetes prevention and cardiovascular risk reduction in American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) communities. The main goal is to fund selected Special Diabetes Program for Indians (SDPI) grantees so they can either continue an existing intervention or newly implement one of two established SDPI demonstration models, while also carefully documenting what they do and what results they achieve. Because this is a cooperative agreement rather than a standard grant, recipients should expect substantial involvement from the federal program office, typically meaning closer coordination, shared planning expectations, and a stronger emphasis on reporting, evaluation, and spreading effective practices.
Applicants must choose to implement one of two program tracks. The first track is the Diabetes Prevention Program, which focuses on primary prevention of diabetes, meaning it targets people who do not yet have diabetes but are at elevated risk and aims to prevent or delay disease onset through evidence-based prevention strategies. The second track is the Healthy Heart Project, which targets people who already have diabetes and focuses on reducing cardiovascular disease risk, recognizing that heart disease and related complications are major drivers of illness and mortality among individuals with diabetes. Across both tracks, the opportunity emphasizes not only delivering services but also collecting meaningful data on activities and outcomes so that impact can be demonstrated and improvements can be made over time.
A central purpose beyond direct program delivery is dissemination. The opportunity explicitly aims to spread information, tools, and best practices that came out of the original SDPI Demonstration Projects into a wider range of AI/AN health care settings, including IHS facilities, Tribal health programs, and urban Indian health programs. Award recipients in both the Diabetes Prevention Program and the Healthy Heart Project are expected to participate in dissemination activities under the cooperative agreement. In practical terms, this typically means sharing lessons learned, implementation approaches, and results with other programs and communities so that successful methods can be replicated and adapted elsewhere, rather than remaining isolated to the original sites.
Funding for this initiative was substantial for the cycle described, with an estimated total of $23,300,000 and an expectation of 66 awards. Individual awards were projected to fall within a relatively narrow range, with an award floor of $324,300 and an award ceiling of $397,000. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, which lowers the financial barrier for eligible programs that may have limited ability to contribute non-federal funds. The activity category is health, and the applicable CFDA number listed is 93.442 (Special Diabetes Program for Indians (SDPI) Diabetes Prevention and Healthy Heart Initiative).
Eligibility is focused on organizations already engaged with SDPI work and capable of implementing and tracking these interventions. Current SDPI Demonstration Project grantees are eligible, but they must show they have complied with the terms and conditions of their prior SDPI awards to be considered for additional funding. SDPI Community Directed grantees may also be eligible if they meet specific criteria and can document capacity. Eligible applicants include: (1) Indian Health Service facilities such as hospitals or clinics, (2) federally recognized Tribes operating an Indian health program under the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act (Public Law 93-638) through contract, grant, cooperative agreement, or compact, (3) Title V Urban Indian Health Programs operating under the Indian Health Care Improvement Act, and (4) consortia of these entities that can demonstrate a track record of successful collaboration and compliance with previous project or grant requirements. The announcement encourages smaller applicants to apply as part of a consortium, especially when a local diabetes registry is under 250, which signals that the program values sufficient patient population and infrastructure for evaluation and sustainability, while also providing a pathway for smaller sites to participate through regional collaboration.
Key dates for the archived opportunity indicate it was posted and created on August 11, 2010, with an original and current closing date of September 10, 2010, and an archive date of October 10, 2010. The sponsoring agency is the Indian Health Service, and the listing references an additional information link to the full announcement on the IHS website.
