Tribal health departments serve as a cri�cal and trusted source for informa�on about adult and child immuniza�ons, and specifically in boos�ng COVID-19 vaccine confidence among a cri�cal at-risk popula�on. This project aims to engage Tribal governments – both those that operate their own health care delivery systems and those receiving health care directly from the Indian Health Service, to empower members to have effec�ve COVID-19 vaccine conversa�ons, ac�vate members to make vaccine confidence visible, increase the capacity of members to share credible COVID-19 vaccina�on informa�on and respond to misinforma�on on social media, and share success stories and lessons learned.

1. Empower tribal health departments and governments to have effec�ve COVID-19 vaccine conversa�ons and address vaccine misinforma�on within their communi�es.

2. Ac�vate tribal health departments to make COVID-19 vaccine confidence visible, incorpora�ng culturally appropriate approaches.

3. Increase the capacity of tribal health departments to share credible COVID-19 vaccine informa�on and respond to misinforma�on on social media, conduct webinars/trainings using a CDC-provided toolkit, and convene members in a learning collabora�ve to support each other and address challenges.

4. Gather vaccine confidence "success stories" from their membership and package them into formats for sharing with membership (e.g., case studies, summaries of lessons learned, videos)

# of opportuni�es provided to state health leadership to share state issues # of states repor�ng a be�er understanding of the public health agenda

A Na�onal Organiza�on will develop and coordinate the following ac�vi�es in collabora�on with CDC Technical Monitors

Strengthen states' ability to flex their structures to rapidly absorb and apply federal funds to combat the COVID-19 pandemic as well as to adjust public health authori�es. Consider a Learning Lab approach with na�onal policy organiza�ons to address policy and administra�ve improvements needed by states Iden�fy promising and evidence-based prac�ces, success stories, example policy changes and organiza�onal adjustments that improve the ability of the states to secure required human and other resources, monitor the varying community-level needs and rapidly deploy resources where needed.

Share across states to facilitate shared learning.

DIstribute to SHDs, as well as external partners, which may include na�onal organiza�ons, federal partners

Number of mee�ngs hosted with partner organiza�ons Number of resource documents developed from sessions Number of policies developed and implemented by state health departments Number of best prac�ce guidelines developed and disseminated

Results of policy and administra�ve op�ons iden�fied and documented for dissemina�on Success stories, example policies

Within the budget period, model examples of organiza�onal and policy mechanisms to support states’ rapid u�liza�on of federal funds to respond to COVID-19 pandemic will be disseminated

# of state health departments that adapt organiza�onal, administra�ve and policy changes to support their ability to u�lize federal assistance urgently to address public health emergencies

A Na�onal Organiza�on will develop and coordinate the following ac�vi�es in collabora�on with CDC Technical Monitors

This work stream builds off of the exis�ng strong online training core coursework on contact tracing. Such efforts may target SHD staff, as well as atypical public health partners such as:

Call Center staff Employers School-based personnel Data provisioners

Develop targeted contact tracing content associated with changes in the COVID19 pandemic response and available interven�ons. Such topics may include:

Fluctua�ons in contact tracing workloads Public acceptance and trust in contact tracing efforts Funding for long-term versus short-term staff assignments

Develop registra�on and tracking tools Generate monthly reports documen�ng contract tracing tool and training uptake and comple�ons

CIO CERTIFICATION

By submi�ng this project plan, I cer�fy that my CIO currently does not maintain a comparable NOFO related to this proposed CBA project. I understand my CIO is responsible for adhering to all applicable scien�fic policies and securing requisite clearances in the Scien�fic Tracking and Repor�ng System (STARS). I will discuss the project with my Associate Director for Science (ADS) and obtain the appropriate scien�fic clearances prior to ini�a�ng project ac�vi�es that involve the collec�on, genera�on, or analysis of public health data.

Improved understanding of contact tracing among training a�endees to support �mely case no�fica�on efforts in a variety of se�ngs

% of training a�endees repor�ng an improved understanding of contact tracing as a result of comple�ng training curriculum

Recipient must play a cri�cal role in the na�ons' preparedness for, response to, and recovery from large scale public health emergencies like the current historic COVID-19 pandemic. Recipient must have the capacity to provide methods for state and territorial health departments to iden�fy recovery resources across a variety of sectors to advance efforts to create healthier, more resilient communi�es at the local level post COVID-19.

The recipient is an experienced na�onal organiza�on and leaders in advancing contact tracing for COVID-19 through training, con�nuous learning and engagement with academic and public health partners to advance leadership for contact tracing workforce development and implementa�on considera�ons for emerging technological solu�ons. Building upon exis�ng contact tracing coursework could include target groups of public health partners such as call center staff, employers, school-based personnel and data provisioners. Facilitates a na�onal contact training collabora�on which includes robust representa�on from federal, academic, and public health organiza�ons across the country. The recipient is a leader among state and territorial health organiza�ons that can coordinate across states and territories to address organiza�onal, policy and administra�ve aspects to address evolving pandemic issues.

The recipient will leverage its collabora�ve rela�onships and work closely with other na�onal organiza�ons to align priori�es at every level of COVID-19 response. The recipient will also have the capability to work collabora�vely with other organiza�ons to improve coordina�on of COVID-19 response ac�vi�es between state, tribal, local, and territorial jurisdic�ons through a broader more integrated approach. Addi�onally, collabora�on between the funded recipient and CDC's Technical Monitor will occur throughout the project lifecycle to inform communica�on and informa�on needs.

The recipient may subcontract with other organiza�ons to complete project ac�vi�es.

The recipient will not be directed to subcontract with a specific organiza�on.

Personnel, fringe, equipment, supplies, contracts, etc. are allowable costs under this award. Research, clinical care are unallowable. Recipient should seek approval from TM for new costs.

Recipient proposals should be scalable. If less funds are available, CDC and recipient will work together to revise and further priori�ze ac�vi�es in the workplan.

Recipient is expected to spend down the funding received within the budget period.
