Opportunity Summary:
The Methamphetamine Suicide Prevention Initiative for American Indian and Alaska Native Youth (MSPI Y) is a discretionary, competitive grant program offered by the Indian Health Service (IHS) to strengthen and expand community-level prevention and support services focused on methamphetamine use and suicide among American Indian and Alaska Native youth. The opportunity is grounded in federal authorities including the Snyder Act (25 U.S.C. 13) and provisions of the Indian Health Care Improvement Act (IHCIA), including 25 U.S.C. 1602 and 25 U.S.C. 1621h(m), and it is listed in the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance under CFDA 93.933 (Demonstration Projects for Indian Health). The overall intent is practical and service-oriented: to increase access to proven prevention approaches by building out Tribal and youth-serving systems that can reach young people before, during, and after periods of heightened risk.
The program emphasizes a continuum of care that includes Tribal and community prevention programming as well as youth residential services, transitional or discharge planning, and structured aftercare. A central theme is improving what happens when a young person leaves a residential or intensive setting and returns to the community, since that transition period can be a high-risk time for relapse, crisis, or suicidal behavior. Funding is meant to enhance or reinforce existing transitional/discharge and aftercare efforts, with a specific focus on integrating methamphetamine prevention and suicide prevention strategies into those services, rather than operating as isolated, short-term interventions.
IHS anticipated making three awards under this announcement, with an estimated total funding amount of $600,000. Each individual award is set at $100,000, with both the award floor and award ceiling listed as $100,000, indicating a uniform award size for selected applicants. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which reduces the financial barrier for eligible organizations and supports participation by communities that may have limited access to non-federal funding.
Eligibility is limited to organizations with direct standing and demonstrated capacity to work within American Indian and Alaska Native communities. Eligible applicants include federally recognized Tribes, Tribal organizations as defined by the IHCIA (25 U.S.C. 1603(e)), Tribal consortia, and nonprofit urban Indian organizations as defined by 25 U.S.C. 1603(h). Applicants must provide proof of federally recognized status where applicable. The announcement states that eligibility is restricted to these entities because they are viewed as having the necessary knowledge, experience, and infrastructure to carry out culturally grounded and community-appropriate activities for AI/AN youth.
Key administrative details include the funding opportunity number HHS 2009 IHS METHY 0001 and an original and current closing date of July 31, 2009. The opportunity was posted June 26, 2009, created June 29, 2009, and archived August 31, 2009. The funding instrument type is a grant, and the activity category is health. For access issues or questions about the full announcement, the contact listed is Tammy Bagley, Senior Grants Policy Analyst, Grants Policy Office, at 301-443-6290, and the notice points applicants to the Grants Policy/Operations website for additional information.
