The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Rural Utilities Service awarded a $1,729,489 Project Grant to the Alaska Native Tribal Health Consortium (ANTHC) under the Water and Waste Disposal Systems for Rural Communities program (CFDA 10.760) on September 27, 2023. This funding will support the development and improvement of water and waste disposal infrastructure serving financially needy rural Alaskan communities. The grant aims to ensure reasonable user costs for rural residents, businesses, and other rural users while enhancing the quality and reliability of essential water and waste services. The ANTHC, a non-profit tribal health organization, frequently partners with regional tribal health groups, the CDC, and other federal/academic partners to deliver a diverse array of healthcare and infrastructure services to Alaska Native communities through federal contracts and grants.
