Opportunity Summary:
The Tribal Management Grant (TMG) Program is a competitive grant opportunity offered by the Indian Health Service (IHS) to help strengthen the management and administrative foundation that Tribes and Tribal organizations need to operate health programs effectively. The program is designed to build or improve health management infrastructure so that Federally recognized Indian Tribes and eligible Tribal organizations can assume responsibility for some or all Indian Health Service programs, functions, services, and activities (PFSAs) through a Title I contract under the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act (ISDEAA). It also supports Tribes and Tribal organizations that already manage programs under Title I contracts or Title V compacts by helping them further develop and improve their management capacity, which can translate into stronger governance, better systems, and more efficient delivery of services.
A key part of this funding is that it can be used for planning and capability-building work that directly supports self-determination goals. The notice highlights the statutory authority at 25 U.S.C. Section 450h(e), which allows grants for two broad purposes. First, Tribes and Tribal organizations can use funds to obtain technical assistance from providers they choose, including from other Tribal entities with mature contracting experience, to support program planning and evaluation. This includes building the management systems needed for contract management and developing cost allocation plans used to establish indirect cost rates. Second, the grant can support the planning, design, monitoring, and evaluation of Federal programs that serve the applicant Tribe or Tribal organization, including reviewing and assessing related Federal administrative functions. In practical terms, the grant is oriented toward strengthening internal systems and oversight so a Tribe or Tribal organization is better prepared to take on, manage, and improve health-related programs.
The opportunity is listed as a discretionary grant in the health activity category under Funding Opportunity Number HHS 2013 IHS TMD 0001, titled "Tribal Management Grant Program." The CFDA number associated with the program is 93.228 (Indian Health Service Health Management Development Program). IHS anticipated making about 25 awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $2,679,000. Individual awards were expected to fall between $50,000 (award floor) and $100,000 (award ceiling). There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement stated for this opportunity.
Eligibility is limited to Indian Tribes and Tribal organizations as defined by the ISDEAA. An Indian Tribe is broadly defined to include tribes, bands, nations, or other organized communities, including Alaska Native villages and certain Alaska Native corporations recognized as eligible for special U.S. programs and services because of their status as Indians (25 U.S.C. Section 450b(e)). A Tribal organization is defined as the recognized governing body of an Indian Tribe or a legally established Indian organization that is controlled or sanctioned by that governing body (or democratically elected by the adult members of the community served), and that includes maximum participation of Indians in all phases of its activities (25 U.S.C. Section 450b(l)). The announcement notes that Tribal organizations must provide proof of nonprofit status and are eligible only if incorporated primarily to improve American Indian/Alaska Native health and if they represent the Tribes or Alaska Native villages where they are located. The announcement also restricts submissions to one application per Tribe or Tribal organization.
Timing details in the listing show the opportunity was posted on April 25, 2013, with an original and current closing date of May 31, 2013, and an archive date of June 30, 2013.
