Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2016 IHS MSPI 0002
The Indian Health Service (IHS), through its Division of Behavioral Health and the Office of Clinical and Preventive Services, offered this discretionary grant as a competing supplement under the Methamphetamine and Suicide Prevention Initiative (MSPI). The opportunity is specifically designed to advance MSPI overarching goal number 6: promoting positive American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) youth development and strengthening family engagement by putting early intervention strategies in place that reduce risk factors tied to suicidal behavior and substance abuse. In practical terms, the supplement is meant to help existing grantees expand or strengthen work already underway under MSPI Purpose Area 4, known as the Generation Indigenous (Gen-I) Initiative Support.
The core program focus is early intervention and positive youth development for Native youth through age 24. Funded projects are expected to reduce risk factors associated with suicide and substance use, including methamphetamine use, while building protective factors such as connectedness, coping skills, cultural identity, and access to supportive services. IHS is looking for projects that combine evidence-based and practice-based approaches, meaning applicants can use interventions supported by research as well as approaches grounded in community practice and experience, particularly where cultural relevance is essential. The intent is not only to deliver prevention messaging, but to build resilience, promote healthy development, and increase self-sufficiency behaviors among youth.
The grant outlines four broad objectives that applicants must address. First, programs should implement evidence-based and practice-based strategies that strengthen resiliency and positive development for Native youth. Second, they must actively promote family engagement, recognizing that caregivers and families are often central protective factors and key partners in youth wellness. Third, they should increase youth access to culturally appropriate prevention activities aimed at stopping methamphetamine use and other substance use disorders that can contribute to suicidal behaviors. Fourth, applicants are expected to expand staffing by hiring additional behavioral health personnel focused on children, adolescents, and families. This includes licensed clinicians as well as paraprofessionals such as peer specialists, mental health technicians, and community health aides, with the clear expectation that these staff will directly implement activities that meet all the objectives above.
Eligibility is narrow and limited to organizations that are already funded MSPI Purpose Area 4 grantees. Applicants must fall within one of the eligible Indian health program entity types defined in 25 U.S.C. Section 1603: a federally recognized Indian Tribe, a Tribal organization, or an urban Indian organization. Urban Indian organizations must be nonprofit corporate bodies located in urban centers, governed by an urban Indian-controlled board, structured to ensure maximum participation from interested Indian groups and individuals, and capable of legally cooperating with public and private partners to carry out the authorized activities. Where applicable, applicants must include proof of nonprofit status in the application package (for example, documentation of 501(c)(3) status).
Key administrative details from the notice include the funding opportunity number HHS-2016-IHS-MSPI-0002 and CFDA 93.933. The agency anticipated making up to 25 awards, with an award ceiling of $300,000. The original application closing date listed was August 1, 2016, and the opportunity was posted on June 30, 2016. Overall, this supplement is best understood as targeted support to help current Gen-I (Purpose Area 4) MSPI sites deepen youth- and family-centered prevention work, expand culturally grounded early intervention services, and increase staffing capacity to better prevent substance use and suicide risk among Native youth.Apply for HHS 2016 IHS MSPI 0002
