Description

The Indian Health Service is offering a Tribal Self-Governance Planning Cooperative Agreement Program. This program provides resources to tribes interested in entering the Tribal Self-Governance Program (TSGP) and to existing Self Governance Tribes interested in assuming new or expanded Programs, Services, Functions, and Activities (PSFAs). The planning phase of this program is critical for tribes to make informed decisions about which PSFAs to assume and what organizational changes are necessary to support those PSFAs. The Planning Cooperative Agreement is not a prerequisite to enter the TSGP, and tribes may use other resources to meet the planning requirement. Tribes that receive Planning Cooperative Agreements are not obligated to participate in the TSGP and may choose to delay or decline participation based on the outcome of their planning activities. Nonfederally Recognized Native American Tribal Organizations are eligible to apply for this opportunity. The deadline for application submission is February 20, 2024. The estimated total program funding is $900,000, with an award ceiling and floor of $180,000. It is expected that 5 awards will be granted. For more information, contact the Division of Grants Management at DGM@ihs.gov or call 301-443-2114.
