About this opportunity
The Indian Health Service is forecasting a new cooperative agreement cohort under the Healthy Lifestyles in Youth Project to fund Tribal Organizations and Federally Recognized Tribal Governments to provide essential public health services, with no hard application deadline specified in this forecast announcement.
Eligible applicants are federally recognized Indian tribes, tribal organizations, nonprofit inter-tribal organizations, nonprofit urban Indian organizations contracting with IHS under Title V of the Indian Health Care Improvement Act, public or private nonprofit health and education entities, and state and local government health agencies. The program prioritizes applicants with demonstrated expertise working with Boys and Girls Clubs of America, experience implementing the TRAIL (Together Raising Awareness for Indian Life) curriculum, and capacity to address and evaluate healthy lifestyle techniques in AI/AN youth populations.
The project promotes healthy lifestyles among American Indian and Alaska Native youth at Native Boys and Girls Club sites across the nation, with the long-term goal of preventing or delaying the onset of obesity and type 2 diabetes. Participating sites implement the T.R.A.I.L. curriculum, which combines physical, educational, and nutritional activities while drawing from tribal traditions and history to address nutrition, food choices, media influences, and diabetes impact. The program currently operates at 68 Native Boys and Girls Club sites in 11 states and has served more than 22,000 AI/AN youth since 2003.
Initial project periods run up to five years, typically three years, with competitive renewals possible to a total project period not exceeding five years. Selection criteria emphasize the problem statement, demonstrated need, expected results, soundness of the project approach, key personnel qualifications, and adequacy of management controls. The CFDA number is 93.00K. Grantees must maintain records for three years after final expenditure reporting and are subject to DHHS inspection and audit under 2 CFR Subpart F.

This project promotes healthy lifestyles amongst American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) youth at selected Native Boys and Girls Club sites across the nation. The long-term goal is to prevent or delay the onset of obesity and related diseases, such as type 2 diabetes.
Participating sites implement the "Together Raising Awareness for Indian Life" (also known as T.R.A.I.L. or "On the T.R.A.I.L. to Diabetes Prevention") curriculum. T.R.A.I.L. uses an innovative combination of physical, educational, and nutritional activities. The sites also draw from tribal traditions and history to learn about nutrition, food choices, media influences, and the impact of diabetes. T.R.A.I.L. is currently offered at 68 Native Boys and Girls Clubs sites in 11 states. Since 2003, the program has served more than 22,000 AI/AN youth.
