Opportunity Summary:
The Social and Economic Development Strategies Tribal Governance (SEDS TG) funding opportunity is a discretionary federal grant program run by the Administration for Native Americans (ANA) within the Administration for Children and Families (ACF), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Using Fiscal Year 2011 funds, the program supports new, community-based projects focused specifically on tribal governance. In practical terms, it is meant to help tribal governments and eligible tribal organizations build stronger internal systems, leadership capacity, and governance infrastructure so they can deliver better and more effective services, particularly for children and families, while also strengthening tribal authority and local decision-making over community resources.
A key theme of this round of funding is that it continues and refocuses governance work that had previously been supported under ANA s broader Social and Economic Development Strategies (SEDS) program. Under SEDS TG, the governance priority is expanded and sharpened to emphasize projects that improve how tribal governments function internally, such as strengthening administrative capacity, improving internal processes, developing governance structures, and enhancing the ability to plan, manage, and deliver services. The opportunity also explicitly highlights increasing a tribal government s ability to exercise local control and make decisions about its own resources, which signals a strong interest in projects that reinforce self-determination through better governance systems and operational capability.
Funding details indicate ANA expected to make about 15 awards, with an estimated total funding pool of $2,500,000. Individual awards are expected to fall between $50,000 (award floor) and $375,000 (award ceiling). The program is listed under CFDA 93.612 (Native American Programs) and is categorized under the federal activity area of Income Security and Social Services. A cost sharing or matching requirement applies, meaning applicants should be prepared to contribute non-federal resources in accordance with the full announcement s rules.
Eligibility is broad within the Native-serving and tribal governance space, but it is not open to everyone. Eligible applicants include federally recognized Native American tribal governments, Native American tribal organizations that are not federally recognized tribal governments, and qualified nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). The announcement also clarifies that faith-based and community organizations may apply as long as they meet the stated eligibility requirements. Individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships are explicitly ineligible to compete for or receive awards under this opportunity. The full and definitive list of eligible entities is provided in the official funding opportunity announcement.
This specific announcement was issued as a modified version, and several administrative corrections and compliance requirements are emphasized. The notice corrects the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) telephone number throughout the announcement to 1 866 606 8220. More importantly, it underscores that CCR registration is required for all applicants and must be active by the time an award is made. The modification also states plainly that no awards will be made to applicants without an active CCR registration, making registration status a strict gating requirement rather than a minor administrative step. In addition, the announcement notes the implementation of the SF 425 Federal Financial Report, signaling that awardees will use that form for federal financial reporting during the grant period.
Key timing information shows the opportunity was posted on February 4, 2011, with an application closing date of April 5, 2011, and an archive date of December 23, 2011. The official identifier for the opportunity is Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2011-ACF-ANA-NG-0141, titled Social and Economic Development Strategies Tribal Governance (SEDS TG), and the funding instrument is a grant.
