Opportunity Summary:
The Special Diabetes Program for Indians (SDPI), Cycle II is a discretionary grant opportunity from the Indian Health Service (IHS) aimed at strengthening diabetes prevention and treatment efforts in American Indian and Alaska Native communities. The program is designed to fund community-driven approaches that respond to locally identified diabetes needs, with a focus on practical, measurable activities that reduce diabetes risk among people who are at risk, improve services for individuals with newly diagnosed diabetes, ensure high-quality care for those already living with diabetes, and lower the rate of serious diabetes-related complications. In other words, the grant is meant to support programs that can demonstrate they understand the diabetes challenges in their community and have a clear plan to address them using proven methods.
A key feature of this funding cycle is the expectation that funded projects will be grounded in evidence-based practice. Applicants must propose a program plan that integrates at least one IHS Diabetes Best Practice, showing that the work is aligned with established clinical or public health strategies known to improve diabetes outcomes. Just as important, applicants are expected to include a program evaluation plan that tracks outcome measures, meaning grantees are not only delivering services but also collecting data to show whether those services are making a real difference. This emphasis on evaluation signals that the program is focused on results and accountability, not simply funding activities without a way to measure progress.
This opportunity is identified as Funding Opportunity Number HHS 2010 IHS 0002, under CFDA 93.237 (Special Diabetes Program for Indians: Diabetes Prevention and Treatment Projects). It was posted on November 13, 2009, with an application window of 30 days and a firm closing date of December 13, 2009; the announcement notes that no extensions would be provided beyond that date. The program anticipated making about 40 awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $104,800,000. The award structure is unusually straightforward: both the award floor and award ceiling are listed as $1,000,000, indicating that awards were intended to be issued at a consistent level of $1 million per award. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which lowers a common barrier to participation and can be especially important for programs operating with limited discretionary resources.
Eligible applicants are specific AI/AN-serving entities connected to IHS-authorized health service delivery. This includes federally recognized Tribes operating Indian health programs under contracts, grants, cooperative agreements, or compacts with IHS pursuant to the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act (Public Law 93-638). It also includes Tribal organizations operating similar programs under ISDEAA authorities, as well as Urban Indian health programs operating Title V Urban Indian Health Programs under the Indian Health Care Improvement Act. IHS facilities are also eligible, with details referenced in the full announcement. The notice further clarifies that current SDPI grantees may apply for competing continuation funding under this announcement, but they must show they have complied with prior SDPI grant terms and conditions to receive additional funding. At the same time, the announcement emphasizes that this is not simply an application for continued funding under the older Community Directed grant model, signaling a competitive process with specific planning and evaluation expectations rather than an automatic continuation.
For applicants needing assistance accessing the full announcement or navigating the process, the listed contact is Tammy Bagley, Grants Policy Analyst, at (301) 443-7172 and Tammy.bagley@ihs.gov, and an additional information link points to the Division of Grants Operations and Grants Policy website. Overall, SDPI Cycle II is structured as a high-investment, outcomes-focused funding opportunity intended to support robust, community-informed diabetes programs that use IHS best practices and can demonstrate measurable impact in AI/AN populations.
