Opportunity Summary:
The Womens Health Demonstration Cooperative Agreement Program is a competitive funding opportunity offered by the Indian Health Service (IHS) through its Office of Clinical and Preventive Services, Division of Nursing, Womens Health. The purpose is to support demonstration projects that strengthen and improve womens health services in Indian health settings. It is funded as a cooperative agreement, which generally means IHS expects to have substantial involvement with awardees during the project period (for example, collaboration on implementation, reporting, technical assistance, and oversight), rather than operating as a hands-off grant.
This opportunity is authorized under Section 301(a) of the Public Health Service Act (as amended) and provisions of federal law related to Indian health, including 25 U.S.C. 1653 and definitions/purpose statements in 25 U.S.C. 1602(13) and 25 U.S.C. 1602(15). It is listed in the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance under CFDA 93.933, titled Demonstration Projects for Indian Health, which signals that the focus is on practical, real-world service delivery or systems improvements that can be tested, evaluated, and potentially replicated.
The funding instrument is a discretionary cooperative agreement within the Health activity category. IHS anticipated making 4 awards under this announcement. The maximum funding amount per award (the award ceiling) is $150,000, and the award floor is listed as $0, meaning the announcement does not guarantee a minimum award size and final amounts would depend on the approved budget and award decisions. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants are not required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving an award.
Eligibility is limited to specific Indian health-related entities. Applicants may be (1) Tribes or Tribal organizations as defined in 25 U.S.C. 1603(d) and (e), (2) urban Indian organizations as defined in 25 U.S.C. 1603(h), or (3) a nonprofit Tribal organization as defined by the Indian Health Care Improvement Act. A key restriction is that only one application per Tribe, Tribal organization, or urban Indian organization is allowed, which is intended to prevent multiple competing submissions from the same eligible entity and to streamline selection.
There is also a service-volume capacity requirement: applicants must have at least 35,000 encounters annually and must include documentation supporting their annual encounter volume. This requirement suggests IHS intended the demonstration sites to be organizations with enough patient volume and operational scale to implement meaningful womens health improvements, generate measurable results, and demonstrate models that could be applicable across other high-volume Indian health programs.
The opportunity was posted on August 2, 2008, with an original and current closing date of August 27, 2008, and an archive date of September 26, 2008. The funding opportunity number is HHS-2008-IHS-PHN-0003. Additional details were provided through the IHS grants and programs webpage linked in the announcement. For applicants who could not access the full announcement electronically, the listed point of contact was Tammy Bagley (Tammy.Bagley@ihs.gov).
