Opportunity Summary:

The Tribal Management Grant Program (TMG) is an Indian Health Service (IHS) discretionary grant opportunity designed to strengthen the administrative and management foundation that Tribes and Tribal Organizations need to plan for, take on, and successfully run IHS-funded health programs. The core purpose is to build or improve health management infrastructure so that an Indian Tribe or Tribal Organization can assume all or part of existing IHS Programs, Services, Functions, and Activities (PSFA) through a Title I contract under the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act (ISDEAA). It also supports Tribes and Tribal Organizations that already operate under Title I contracts or Title V compacts by helping them further develop and refine their management capacity as their programs mature.

A major feature of this program is its focus on practical capacity building: planning, evaluation, systems development, and the behind-the-scenes management tools that make self-determination agreements workable over time. Under the authority of 25 U.S.C. Section 450h(e), TMG funds can be used to obtain technical assistance from providers chosen by the Tribe or Tribal Organization, including support from other Tribes or Tribal Organizations that operate mature contracts. This technical assistance can cover program planning and evaluation, development of management systems needed for contract administration, and the creation of cost allocation plans that support indirect cost rate development. The grant can also support the planning, design, monitoring, and evaluation of Federal programs serving the applicant organization, including relevant Federal administrative functions, which helps Tribes and Tribal Organizations better understand, coordinate, and oversee the programs that affect their communities.

The opportunity listed as Funding Opportunity Number HHS 2012 IHS TMD 0001 (CFDA 93.228, Indian Health Service Health Management Development Program) anticipated making about 20 awards. Total estimated funding was $2,762,000, with individual award amounts ranging from a $30,000 floor to a $100,000 ceiling. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, which means applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds to participate. The posting date was August 15, 2011, and the application deadline was September 15, 2011, with the opportunity later archived on October 15, 2011.

Eligibility was limited to Indian Tribes or Tribal Organizations as defined by the ISDEAA. An Indian Tribe is broadly defined to include tribes, bands, nations, and other organized Native communities, including Alaska Native villages and certain Alaska Native corporations recognized as eligible for special federal services due to their status. A Tribal Organization is generally the recognized governing body of a Tribe or a legally established organization controlled, sanctioned, or chartered by that governing body (or democratically elected by the adult members of the Indian community served) with maximum Indian participation in its activities. Tribal Organizations were required to provide proof of nonprofit status and were 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 program restricted submissions to one application per Tribe or Tribal Organization.

The administering agency was the Indian Health Service. For help accessing the full funding announcement, the listed contact was Paul Gettys, Grant Systems Coordinator in the Grants Policy Office (phone 301-443-2114).
